I Became Spider-Man's Cousin in Anime Crossover

Chapter 608 Deathmatch in the Cage

"Sheriff Black, this is Spider Squad, we've encountered—"

Faced with the overwhelming numbers and enormous size of the Spider-Killer robots before her, Gwen's first reaction was to report to Sheriff Black and request Hulk's support.

But before she could finish speaking, a piercing static crackled through the communication channel. The intermittent hissing completely drowned out her words.

She tried several more times, but each time the result was the same.

The signal was completely blocked, and even the emergency backup channel in District 13 could not be connected.

While Gwen was calling for help, Peter's eyes quickly scanned the area around the bridge, his mind rapidly assessing the current situation.

Six clearly upgraded spider-killer robots with unknown power limits...

Without any reinforcements, the wisest choice is obviously to retreat temporarily, get out of the robots' encirclement, and then find a way to defeat them one by one.

While he was thinking, the jetpack's propulsion was adjusted, and it carried Peter towards the bridge, which at least had some cover.

But just as Peter flew off the bridge, his spider sense suddenly exploded with intense, sharp pain, pointing straight at an area in front of him that seemed to be empty.

Trusting his spider-sense, Peter's body made an abrupt stop before his brain could react. He forcefully pushed back the thrust of the jetpack, rolled backward, and landed back on the bridge.

"Everyone, be careful, there's something wrong in the area. Don't leave this bridge."

Peter's tone was unusually relaxed.

He raised his left hand, and the tactical watch on his wrist quickly transformed and reassembled. Within seconds, Justice's scanning module completed the detection of the entire airspace.

Then, from Peter's perspective, the surrounding area was completely covered by a dense network of dark red light!

Those optical networks are woven from countless extremely fine strands of high-voltage current. They stretch from the top of the Brooklyn Bridge towers to the entire airspace within a radius of several hundred meters, completely sealing off every inch of this area. Any object attempting to pass through this barrier will be struck by a high-voltage electromagnetic pulse of hundreds of thousands of volts upon contact, with unimaginable consequences.

Peter relayed the result to Gwen and Harry simultaneously. His gaze, complex as he looked at the spider-killer robots above, continued.

"We have no way out... These robots want to capture us alive."

As he spoke, Peter quickly glanced around, his eyes scanning every possible cover and escape route on the bridge, rapidly adjusting his tactical plan in his mind.

Although the spider-killer robots came prepared, achieving such a blockade would require a massive amount of energy and could not be maintained indefinitely. Furthermore, an extended period of isolation would inevitably attract Sheriff Black's attention, allowing him to secure reinforcements without verbal communication.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, when the enemy's strength and weaknesses are unknown, the best option is to engage in a protracted struggle, delaying the situation as much as possible and waiting for an opportunity to break the deadlock.

"Hahaha! We'll have to see if they have the ability!"

However, the option of temporarily avoiding the limelight had only just begun to surface in Peter's mind.

Already young and full of vigor, and having missed the opportunity to participate in the Battle of New York due to his recent busy work schedule, Harry, brimming with energy and nowhere to vent it, had already ejected an armor-piercing pumpkin bomb from his waist, stepped on his glider and cut in from the side, diving towards the nearest Spider Killer robot, accurately smashing it in the center of the robot's torso.

In an instant, an orange-green explosion erupted at the top of the bridge. The shockwave swept through like a storm, forcing Harry himself to retreat several meters before he could barely regain his footing.

But just as the smoke cleared and Harry looked on expectantly, he was shocked to find...

The spider-killer robot that stood still, like a sitting duck, and withstood the pumpkin bomb only had a deep dent on its shell.

The armor dented inward by several centimeters, and spiderweb-like cracks spread outward from the point of impact...

However, it ultimately failed to penetrate this outer shell and cause even the slightest substantial damage to this massive killing machine!

What Harry found even more unbelievable was...

Even this wound is now healing itself at a speed visible to the naked eye, right in front of Harry!

"Are you kidding me! Even armor-piercing weapons can't penetrate it? This thing's outer shell can't be entirely covered in vibranium, can it?!"

This absurd scene made Harry's lips twitch as he complained.

Before he could finish speaking, the spider-killer robot that had been hit suddenly turned towards him, as if it had been disconnected and reconnected.

The missile bays on his back popped open simultaneously within fractions of a second, and four tracking missiles, trailing blinding flames, hurtled towards Harry. Harry was forced to urgently lower his glider and dodge repeatedly between the bridge and the steel cables.

Even more critically, the other five spider-killer robots also turned around at the same time, all aiming their weapons at Harry.

Laser emitters, energy cannons, tracking missiles—all firepower, at the same instant, locked onto the figure desperately dodging on the glider.

This left Peter momentarily unsure of the other party's true intentions: whether they wanted to capture the entire Spider Squad alive, or simply ensure the survival of one member while disregarding the fate of the others.

But Riley taught him a lesson...

When you are unsure of the enemy's intentions, always prepare for the worst-case scenario.

Therefore, without the slightest hesitation, he abandoned his original plan to preserve his strength and proceed cautiously. A flash of golden light appeared in his eyes, and the Crown Prince's functions were completely transferred to Peter.

The next second, Peter transformed into a red and blue blur, shooting out like an arrow. He entered the fray before the Spider Killer robot could fire its laser, his right fist brimming with the full power of his enhanced Prince powers. He aimed at the seemingly more vulnerable joints of one of the robots and slammed it down.

However, the moment his fist made contact with the armor, a sensation he was extremely familiar with traveled from his knuckles to his wrist, and then along his arm all the way to his shoulder blade.

He had experienced that sensation countless times on the training grounds of District 13.

Every time he sparred with Steve, his fist would strike the vibranium shield with a unique, slightly rebounding vibration.

Vibranium!

The outer shell of this thing is completely covered with a layer of vibranium!

Harry's jinx really came true!

Then, recalling my own past experiences of being swiftly proven wrong...

Could this prophetic, almost prophetic mouth be a hidden superpower shared by all "Spider-Man" characters?!

However, these thoughts only flashed through his mind for less than half a second.

The sheer power derived from Spider-Man's superpowers, amplified by the Prince, resulted in a pure physical impact that caused the robot to lose its balance briefly, its leg joints bending like pretzels.

This caused the unbalanced laser emitter to deviate from its original aim. The four tracking missiles, after grazing the edge of Harry's glider, shot into the sky, colliding with the high-voltage electromagnetic grid that enclosed the area, transforming into dazzling "fireworks."

However, vibranium's ability to absorb kinetic energy and then release it also takes effect at the same instant.

Peter felt the force of his punch that slammed into the robot's joint bounce back along his arm with the exact same vector reaction force after a brief delay.

He felt as if he had been punched by himself, flying backward off the robot's armor and tumbling several times in the air before barely managing to regain his balance. He slid several meters, bracing himself with one hand, before finally regaining his footing on the bridge.

Even so, much of the nanosuit on his right side disintegrated, and his right arm hung limply at his side amidst waves of excruciating pain.

In a sense, Peter was completely unprepared when his own full-force attack crippled his arm!

Of course, the reason Peter suffered such a great loss despite Harry's suspicion that the opponent's shell was covered in vibranium is, besides, the same kind of rebellious mentality as in FPS games where teammates clearly warn the enemy of a sniper rifle, yet Peter stubbornly insists on going in to see what's going on...

More importantly, Peter was certain that Gwen would support him in time even without verbal communication, so he deliberately created this opening. In that split second, taking advantage of the close proximity, he used the Prince's Immobilization Technique on the other three Spider-Killer robots!

Therefore, it is true that Peter suffered a severe injury and his dominant arm was rendered useless...

But thanks to this sacrifice, Peter successfully thwarted the attack of the Spider Killer robots, allowing Harry to safely reunite with Peter on a hang glider!

Peter, too, confirmed the most important piece of information based on the Spider-Killer robot's reaction...

Regardless of how the enemies view Gwen and Harry...

But at least one thing is certain: the other party absolutely does not want to... or rather, dares not kill Peter!

Otherwise, judging from the surface, Peter, who deliberately created such a huge opening, would definitely be covered by the firepower of the Spider Killer robot that Peter "accidentally" dropped, and be instantly riddled with holes!
