Chapter 491: Well done
Peter thought it would be difficult, but it wasn't. In fact, there weren't many enemies he needed to defeat along the way, he just had to silently grope inside while the whole ship was in full swing.
Even the route of the Heavenly Sword has been planned for him, and there is no need for him to run around the alien mothership like a headless fly. It took little effort for him to find the area where the deformed aliens were holding hostages.
Probably due to the lack of manpower, the only people guarding the door were two simple-looking Skrulls, standing in place like two stone statues. Until Peter silently climbed up the ceiling to the top of both of them, they didn't notice it, and Peter raised two strands of spider silk and tied them into two large dumplings, gagged them and hung upside down on the ceiling.
It's hard to believe how well it went. Peter jumped back from the ceiling, holding his breath and cautiously following the passage of the cell. The road was lined with cells isolated by laser light, and behind each cell was someone holding someone.
Most of them Peter didn't know, but based on the information he had received from Skysword, he knew that they were all hostages who had been impersonated by aliens and had been held here.
In addition to superheroes, the Skrulls have also replaced a large number of high-ranking people from all walks of life, so the number of hostages held on this ship is really not small.
But Peter didn't stop, he was looking for the main control panel of these cells, a master switch that could open all the doors at the same time. He walked along the cell for a short time, when he suddenly spotted a familiar figure behind a cell.
Peter paused, and with some hesitation, asked the man lying with his back to him, "Barton...... Mr? ”
The man seemed to hear his voice and slowly turned his head.
Clint Patton, former S.H.I.E.L.D., the Avengers, codenamed Hawkeye.
So the Hawkeye on Earth is also an imposter at this time.
Clint undoubtedly saw him, but he didn't react very violently, only frowning slightly.
"Clint, it's me, I'm Peter...... Ah no, Spider-Man. Peter suddenly realized that he was on a mission, and that he should use the mission codename. He leaned over to the control panel next to the cell door, "Wait a minute, I'll figure out how to get this thing open......
Faced with the dense alien text on the operation board, Peter couldn't help but have a headache. There is no "Scrulwin" in the school's elective courses, how can this be done?
Or...... Try one's luck?
Peter decided to give it a try, what if the blind cat ran into a dead mouse?
He pressed the first button...... Well, apparently not quite right. It seems to be heating up in the room, maybe it's the heating system?
This group of aliens actually gave the hostages air conditioners?
The Skrulls are clearly not going to be so kind. In just half a minute, the indoor temperature rose to more than 30 degrees, and there is still no intention of stopping. If you continue like this, Hawkeye will have to be roasted in a moment.
"Uh, sorry, you wait a little longer......"
Peter scratched his head and continued to try the next button.
The door still hasn't opened, but the temperature seems to be starting to drop back to normal...... No, it continues to fall even after it has dropped to 10 degrees, and it has no intention of stopping.
Clint watched him operate on the dial outside, but he still didn't speak, but his brow only furrowed tighter......
Peter stubbornly continued to try. He tried out temperature control, humidity control, airflow control, and even oxygen extraction...... After his countless indomitable attempts, the door finally opened!
"Wow, it worked." Peter wiped his sweat, "I was starting to wonder if there wasn't a 'open' button on it. Come and give a high-five? Or ......"
However, to his complete surprise, Clint didn't say a word after he opened the cell door, and the whole person flew like an arrow from the string! He grabbed Peter's wrist with his right hand and grabbed him by the throat with his left hand, pushing him against the wall behind him.
Peter was taken aback. Spider Sense does not respond – Spider Sense never reacts to people he trusts and is close to.
With his arm strength, he could easily break free, but he didn't.
"What are you guys playing this time again, aliens?" Clint said viciously.
"I ...... Belch...... It's true, Mr. Barton. Peter was choked by his throat and said with difficulty, "It was Mr. Black Knight who called me here, saying that there would be a lot of people here who needed help......"
"Are you real?"
"Of course."
"I think so." Clint snorted, and let go of his hand, "I don't think there's going to be such a stupid spy." ”
From the time Peter was stumped by the lock of the door, Clint had been convinced of his deity.
"It's still nice to meet you." Peter said, "Speaking of which, we have not seen each other for a long time, since ......."
When he said this, he subconsciously closed his mouth and did not continue.
But both understood what he was referring to.
The Heroic Civil War, the war that everyone didn't want to talk about.
"You just said," Clint asked, "that the Black Knight asked you to come here?" Does he know this place? ”
Peter nodded: "Well, now his troops are already engaged in a head-to-head battle with the aliens. It's because the aliens don't have time to take care of themselves right now, so I have the opportunity to come here......"
He paused, and suddenly thought of something: "By the way, do you know where the main console is?" Or is there a master switch that controls all the cells or something? I have to ......"
"I don't know." Clint said lightly, "Do you think I look like someone who understands these things?" ”
"Uh......" Peter thought, too, Hawkeye is not as good as himself in this regard. So he asked, "So what do we do now?" ”
"Don't worry." Clint clenched his fists, "I can't figure it out, but I know someone can." ”
After saying that, he didn't explain, and strode towards the depths of the cell.
When Peter saw that he did not want to say more, he did not ask any more questions, but went on after him.
Then they came to the door of another cell. Here Peter saw someone he knew more well and who he wanted to see most on his trip.
"Get up, Stark." Clint said coldly, "You're lucky, someone has come to save you." ”
The prisoner in the cell—the real Tony Stark—turned his head and opened his mouth in surprise at the sight of the two.
"Mr. Stark!" Peter quickly opened the cell door - and with the experience he had just fumbled, he pressed the right button this time.
"God, you can't believe what I did!" Peter excitedly greeted him and said, "I infiltrated an alien mothership and evaded an entire ship of aliens!" And then I came here and found so many hostages. Then again, what's going on? I haven't ......??? yet ”
Before he could finish speaking, Tony had already stepped forward and grabbed him in his arms.
"You're doing well, kid." He repeated to himself, "Very well done......
