Chapter 472 Conversation on the Roof

[MJ stared at Spider-Man across from him. Then the phone in Spider-Man's pants rang. He walked aside and answered it.]

【“Hello?”】

[Hill's voice came, "Parker! This is Hill! There is a pair of headphones in the battle suit, put them on and wait for further instructions! Do you understand?"]

[“Understood, Ma’am!”]

[Hill hung up the phone, and Ned ran to Spider-Man.]

[“Hey! Dude!”]

【"Hey!"】

[“Look! I’m so sorry! I’ve been busy with my own romance all this time, but I’m still the man behind you!”]

[Looking at Ned, Spider-Man consoles him: "It's okay! It's okay! Don't take it to heart!"]

[Ned was relieved after hearing this, "Okay! That's great! So what's the situation with that element? Where will it appear?"]

"Here! In the city!"

[Ned was stunned, "Peter! We are right here!"]

[Spider-Man knows that all of his classmates are in danger. "I know! This won't work! I'm thinking of a solution!"]

"You have to do something! Peter! We are all counting on you!"

【"baby!"】

[“Yeah! Yeah! Baby!” Ned said a few words, and Betty, who was not far away, started calling him. He immediately returned to her side with a smile. ]

【Teacher Harrington is arranging rooms for the students. "The good news is that everyone can have their own room!"】

[The classmates were still immersed in joy, only Spider-Man looked at them with a heavy heart. He didn't know how to protect them, so he was still distracted when he came to Egghead.]

[“Parker? Parker!!!”]

[Egghead's shout finally brought Spider-Man back to his senses, "Yes! Sir!"]

[Egghead sat on the stool and looked at him, "In a few hours the monster will appear! Do you think this is boring?"]

[Quentin Beck leaned aside and said: "He's not bored! He's thinking about you kidnapping him!"]

[Boiled Egghead replied calmly: "He raised the problem! And I solved it!"]

[Hill turned around with his hands on his hips, "They still don't agree to evacuate the entire city!"]

[Hearing this, Egghead cursed inwardly: "A bunch of idiots!"]

[Then he lowered his head and said: "So tell me your plan, Parker!"]

[“I will stay in the church tower and monitor the whereabouts of the fire monster! As soon as it appears, I will notify you immediately! Then Mr. Baker and I will..."]

[Quentin Beck interrupts him and says, "My name is Mysterio!"]

[Spider-Man smiled, "Then Mysterio and I will attack!"]

[“Peter! Listen to me, your best chance of winning, and your only chance of winning, is to kill it here! At all costs! Try to lead it to a place with fewer people! Most importantly! Never let it get close to metal!”]

[Quentin Beck's words made Spider-Man even more uneasy. He glanced at Egghead and began to complain, "Hey! Man! My friends are all here! I always feel like doing this is pushing them into the fire pit!"]

[Egghead seemed a little angry when he heard this, and stood up and walked to him, saying as he walked: "Have you ever been worried about us? You yourself called a drone to attack your school tour bus!"]

[Speaking of this, Spider-Man lowered his head in guilt. He almost caused a disaster. If Dimitri hadn't had a strong psychological quality and controlled the car at the critical moment, I'm afraid everyone on the bus would have died on the cliff.]

[“Stark left you an augmented reality strategic intelligence system worth billions of dollars! What did you do after you got it? You almost blew up your friends!”]

[Then Egghead glanced at Hill and said, "I told him! I warned him! You are not qualified yet!!!" The last sentence was said to Spider-Man. ]

"He is not yet able to bear such a heavy responsibility!" Toby Spider shook his head gently.

Apparently Tony had always had Spider-Man deal with activities related to combating common criminals, and had not allowed him to participate in extremely dangerous events, such as alien invasions.

There are pros and cons to doing this. The advantage is that Spider-Man can easily fight against ordinary criminals, and he can handle even those with a little bit of ability.

But his shortcomings are also obvious. He is simply unable to adapt to the position of a leader and even cannot distinguish priorities because of his friends.

"He's not like you, Peter! What kind of people does he interact with? Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, they are all extremely capable guys, and he has people to rely on all around him. That's why when problems arise, he only wants to find someone to help!"

Uncle Ben knew very well why Toby Spider was able to become so powerful, because he only had himself to rely on. Although he now had Gwen wearing Venom and Harry, he still relied on himself to solve problems most of the time.

But Spider-Man is different. Whenever something goes wrong, he can always ask for help. This way, he won’t grow at all!

[Spider-Man's criticism made him feel a little depressed. He sat on the roof, wondering what he was thinking.]

[Quentin Beck flew up there, "Fury asked me to come up here to see how you are doing. He felt really bad for getting mad at you just now!"]

[Spider-Man is a little surprised, "Really?"]

[“You have the term ‘sarcasm’ on Earth, right? How about you?”]

[Spider-Man gave a bitter smile and hesitated, "Uh... I didn't expect that I would have to save the world this summer! I know this sounds selfish, but... I had planned to pursue the girl I love! But now it's all ruined!"]

[Quentin Beck sat down next to him, took off his helmet, and comforted him: "It's not selfish for you to want to live a normal life! Child! This road is full of hardships! You have to witness a lot and pay a lot! There are many choices to make! People rely on you and admire you..."]

[“But even if you win the battle, sometimes people die. I like you! Peter! You’re a good kid! There’s a part of me that wants to tell you to just walk away! Get away from it all!”]

[“But there is another part of me that knows! What we are fighting against! What we are protecting! I am so glad you are here!”]

[Spider-Man nodded gently, "Me too!"]

[“But you’re still worried about your friends!”]

[“Yeah! I feel like I’m always putting them in danger!”]
