Chapter 773 Let's storm their stronghold!
Wasteland Universe, Headquarters.
Peter went straight back here because Miguel said they had cleaned up the other side of the battlefield and, with the help of Peter Parker and Strange, had covered it up.
When Peter arrived at headquarters, he heard Miguel explaining to Jessica and the others why they had retreated.
"As I said, ma'am, the enemy's current objective is only to prevent the birth of Spider-Man, and we have already ensured the successful birth of Spider-Man in that universe, so they are not the enemy for the time being—at least not the target of the Sisterhood of the Wasps."
As for the successor, although Miguel felt very uncomfortable with such a novice, considering the urgency of the matter, he decided to let the friendly insect join the alliance to protect his safety.
"Oh, you're back. How did it go?"
"It went very smoothly. These guys who are into mystical stuff have absolutely no idea about the value of technology. And our enemy this time is strictly speaking just the Spider Bee Queen, not the Demon Queen."
Peter spoke while glancing at Cindy. This time, the reason they attracted Morren was entirely because of Cindy. As the "bride," Cindy would attract the attention of the heirs. Originally, in Universe 616, this was relatively safe, but their departure had instead drawn their attention.
Peter refocused his attention and turned on his computer to check the location of the probe he had implanted inside the mother spider wasp.
"Alright, if the intelligence is correct, then we've located their exact position. Unless the Spider-Bee Queen can really transform all the ogres into Spider-Bee monsters, which seems unlikely at the moment."
Peter looked at the location on the map, took a deep breath, and then turned to look at the others, making his own analysis.
"We can be certain of two things now. First, the other side is not strong enough. That's why they chose to prevent the birth of Spider-Man instead of directly transforming him. They are not confident in defeating so many Spider-Men."
Peter immediately began to analyze, and then Jessica picked up where Peter left off and continued, "Secondly, the other party is probably quite unfamiliar with technology, right? That's why they wouldn't think of methods like cloning."
Peter located the other party's current position on the resonance map of the multiverse, then looked at Miguel: "We don't need too many people, especially considering the other party's strength and reproduction method. I'm afraid that the more people we have, the more disadvantageous it will be."
Miguel frowned. He understood Peter's meaning: the spider wasps grew and thrived thanks to the spider totem. Just like when the entire spider wasp mother infected Moron, while it wasn't impossible, the resulting minions weren't as powerful as those born from the spider totem.
Peter nodded and continued, "In other words, if we can send out a small team to launch a surprise attack, it will most likely be very effective, and it will definitely catch the enemy off guard."
"Even so, if the team has too few people, won't it be ineffective?"
Miguel expressed his concern: "Among the Spider-Men in the league right now, apart from you and Takuya Yamashiro, there isn't anyone strong enough. Our fighting strength is insufficient."
"I think the two of us are enough."
Peter said half-jokingly, then his expression turned serious: "I know that, so what I'm saying is, this is a crisis targeting all spider totems. Well, at least it's a threat, and in that case, there's no need for us to be the only ones responsible for it."
Miguel seemed thoughtful upon hearing this, then suddenly realized: "You mean..."
"Yes, we'll find the Spider Legion. Since this thing itself also threatens them, then they have an obligation to do their part."
Peter's plan was simple, but effective. After he finished speaking, he looked at the others: "This mission is dangerous. Our enemy's target is all the spider totems, and you've seen how they're increasing their numbers, so..."
"I want to go with you."
To Peter's surprise, it wasn't Gwen who said those words, but Cindy. Peter looked at Cindy with some astonishment, while Cindy gave her answer quite definitively.
"I want to go with you. Before, it was because I wanted to guide you back to our universe, because I am a special totem or something... No, it's not just that. Even in New York, we've hardly ever acted together."
"It's very dangerous."
"Yes, you'll be in danger."
Cindy shut Peter up with the exact same words, and Miguel, who witnessed this, pulled Peter aside: "My suggestion is, if you can, you might as well take them with you."
Peter looked at Miguel in disbelief.
"I've said it before, you've protected them too well, and I'm not exaggerating. With their abilities and talents, they should be more mature and better suited to the battles we're about to face, but what's the reality? They're like most rookies. The other two are alright, but Spider-Gwen has almost no combat experience, or rather, no experience dealing with supervillains. She's practically a novice."
"Listen, Miguel..."
"Of course, I know you want to protect others, that's your business, I'm just offering suggestions and have no right to interfere. But there's another matter, which is why I'm making this suggestion. If you leave Cindy Moon here, then the entire headquarters could become the Heir's target."
Miguel countered Peter's question: "If the entire Heir's family marches to their base because of her, tell me we have a chance of winning."
Peter immediately sobered up a lot. Given the current fighting strength of the Heirs' family, even if he and Yamashiro Takuya were together, they would definitely not be a match for the entire Heirs' family.
Of course, the inheritors have their weaknesses, such as a fear of radiation, which is why their headquarters are located in the wasteland universe, where there is indeed a certain amount of radiation. However, this radiation is not a panacea and cannot protect them forever.
After weighing the options, Peter sighed.
"Okay, Cindy, we'll go together, but you have to be careful. Your safety is more important than anything else."
After saying all that, Peter suddenly felt much more relaxed. Just as he was about to let out a sigh of relief, he suddenly saw Gwen raise her hand as well.
"Me! I want to go too!"
