Chapter 488: Clone
The two Peter Parkers had been playing for more than ten minutes by this point, and they were still completely evenly matched. The two of them are also amazingly full of physical strength, and they have been fighting for so long, and at the same time, they are constantly changing new tricks and ridiculing each other, and they don't even show the slightest tiredness.
Suddenly, a rapid figure fell from the sky and suddenly fell between the two. Before the two parkers could react, one hand grabbed the back of their necks and lifted them apart, pulling them apart. Eric suddenly descended from the sky like an instantaneous movement, picked them up one by one, and said, "Don't rush to fight yet, fists won't solve anything, Mr. Parker." ”
Both stopped, and one of them, Peter, asked, "Eric?" Do you know what's going on? Who is this high-profile guy? He's a pretty realistic imitation, I'll admit it. ”
Another Peter said, "Ha, are you still hard-mouthed until this point?" ”
"You can pause for a moment." "I don't know, but ...... Well, I brought a clear guy, it's just that you guys probably won't be happy to see him. ”
The two Parkers looked back together, and one of their most hated enemies, Doctor Octopus, Otto, had stood to the side at some point, clasped his hands, and said leisurely: "It's really interesting to watch two spider boys fight, I've never thought of it that way before." ”
"Otto!?" The two Parkers shouted in unison, presumably the only unanimous opinion they had had seen since they met, "Isn't he supposed to be in prison?" ”
"Otto escaped from prison earlier." Eric said, glancing at Otto, "And the only reason I didn't send him back now is that he said he could explain it. ”
This sentence has some threatening implications. Otto was not angry, and smiled: "It's ironic, the last time we met, you wanted to dismantle me, and now you need my help." ”
"It's not a plea for help, Otto." Eric said coldly, "You don't have a choice. Now, you can repeat what you just said. ”
Otto said, "I know that a new group of forces have recently emerged in New York City, and they seem to have developed a potion that allows ordinary humans to temporarily gain the same powers as you spider boys. Between what I've done...... Help Skyeye create a super spider soldier, so you seem to think this has something to do with me...... I have to admit that it may have something to do with my genius. ”
"Don't talk nonsense." Eric interrupted, "Straight to the point. ”
Otto smiled and said, "When I applied to work for the Sky Eye Society, responsible for building super soldiers with spider abilities, I wasn't the only one invited. Another person was invited, but he refused, and that was the 'jackal'. ”
"Sounds like an animal." One Peter said, "Doesn't he have an official name?" ”
Otto shook his head and said, "My knowledge of him is limited to the information in the Tianyan Society, but I know that even Tianyan doesn't know his true identity. All I know is that he's a genius in genetics, especially for you, Spider-Man, and especially deeply. Even I have to admit that he's better than I am when it comes to cloning you. ”
At this point, the two of them had already met: "You mean, one of us is a clone. ”
"Yes, you may all think you are real, but it is possible that you are true, and it is also possible that the jackal has given you memories that make you think you are real. So here's the problem...... Who is it? ”
The crowd fell silent again, and the two Parkers looked at each other, but did not say anything. Of course, they all believe that they are the real ones, but if Otto is right, then how do you know that this conviction is not an illusion injected into himself by the guy named Jackal?
Although the two Peters looked exactly the same, they were dressed differently, so it was not difficult to distinguish them. Gwen walked up to Peter, who had been pulling her to escape, and asked, "What did you mean when you said that something very dangerous was approaching and that I should flee quickly?" Does it have anything to do with these? ”
Peter hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes." I remember as if I had been captured by someone, and woke up in a cloning base full of my clones. I was locked up there for a while, almost trying to get out with all my might, only to find out that another me had taken my place during my disappearance! I think whoever did it, he knew I was Spider-Man, and it must have been for me. So I think...... I felt it was important to keep the people who were important to me away from it all before it was too late. ”
"Interestingly, if you're telling the truth, then the location you're talking about is probably the base of the jackal. I wouldn't be surprised if someone told me that he had cloned a large number of Spider-Men on his own. Otto said, pausing for a moment, and then adding, "But the question is, how sure are you of what you say?" ”
This Peter frowned: "What do you mean?" ”
Otto said: "For example, do you remember where you were and who took you to that base? ”
Peter was stunned, thought for a while, shook his head, and said, "I don't remember much...... It could be a side effect of those experiments they did on me. ”
"In that case, you should always remember when you woke up and escaped from the base, right? Can you elaborate on the location of that base? Or how did you escape? What kind of people are blocking you on the way? How did you deal with them? ”
All eyes were on Peter, who frowned and pondered, and with each question Otto threw out a question, he seemed to be in more pain, and finally fell to his knees with his head in his hands, and said, "I...... I can't remember...... But I'm really Peter Parker......"
But at this point, everyone has basically no doubt that this seems to be a clone. Otto sneered smugly: "It's quite interesting to let a clone think he is the real Parker to disturb him, but it's a pity that when I meet Octavius, such a carving insect skill is not worth mentioning." ”
Seeing the painful look on his face, Gwen felt a little pity in her heart, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and said softly, "It's okay, it's okay if you can't remember......"
"If I really can't remember, I can still do it." Otto held his chin and said, "Maybe his memories have been tampered with, but there must be traces, but they are hidden deep in the subconscious. Luckily for you, it's not hard for a genius like me to awaken such deep memories. Take him back to my lab and I can get him to say everything he remembers. ”
