Chapter 196 Test (Daily 300010000, th Day )

"When the potion is fully digested, you will feel a power you have never felt before."

At the dining table, Parker clenched his fists as these words echoed in his ears.

Feeling the increased strength in his body, he finally understood what Priest Hansen meant by what he had said earlier.

At this moment, he really felt that power flowing in his body like a warm spring, nourishing every inch of his skin and bones.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm his excitement.

Sure enough, when the potion was fully digested, he could clearly feel the presence of this power.

That kind of power is not just an enhancement of physical strength, but also an awakening deep in the soul, which makes him feel a mysterious connection between himself and the world.

Then, next comes the promotion he has always dreamed of.

Parker's heart was beating so wildly that it seemed like it was going to jump out of his chest.

He knew that promotion meant he would gain greater power and might even be exposed to higher-level secrets.

That was what he had always been pursuing, and the scene he had dreamed of countless nights.

Parker tried hard to suppress his pounding heart, quickly finished his breakfast, and then cleared the tableware. His movements were swift and powerful.

Then he drew all the curtains in the room, making the room dark.

The gloomy environment gave him a sense of tranquility, as if he was isolated from the outside world, with only himself and the coming power.

Immediately, he returned to his bedroom and slowly took off his shirt, revealing his strong chest.

Compared with his former thin self, his muscles are now clearly defined and full of strength.

Then he lay gently on the soft mattress, feeling the warmth and softness of the mattress giving him a sense of comfort.

Parker slowly reached his hand towards his chest and touched the mysterious spider web mark.

The mark was like an exquisite pattern, emitting a faint light.

As he gradually focused his attention on the spider web mark, the mark suddenly began to emit a strange red light.

The red light became brighter and brighter, as if it had life, gradually dyeing the entire bedroom red.

Parker felt a strong energy surge from the mark and quickly spread throughout his body.

His heartbeat suddenly accelerated and his blood seemed to be boiling, as if every cell was calling for the arrival of power.

He closed his eyes, feeling the flow of that power, as if he had become the embodiment of power.

When Parker opened his eyes again, he found, as expected, that he was no longer in his familiar bedroom.

Before your eyes is a towering tower, its spire seems to reach straight into the sky, giving you a sense of insurmountable majesty.

The tower was surrounded by endless barren wilderness, the ground covered with cracked soil and sparse dead grass, with no signs of life.

The sky was filled with thick gray clouds, with occasional flashes of lightning between the clouds, seemingly foreshadowing an impending storm.

The whole scene gives people a depressing feeling of the coming of doomsday, which makes people feel awe.

Standing on this desolate land, Parker felt an unprecedented loneliness and power.

He knew that this was not the real world, but some kind of spiritual space, or a reflection of his inner world, which was called the Shadow Wilderness.

In this shadow wilderness, he will face real tests, and only by passing the tests can he truly be promoted and gain more powerful strength.

Parker took a deep breath and felt a strange energy in the air. He took a step forward and walked towards the tower. Each step seemed heavy and powerful, as if every step was declaring his determination and courage.

When he walked to the front of the tower, the door of the tower slowly opened with a heavy creaking sound, and Parker walked in without hesitation.

The light inside the tower was dim, with only a few ancient oil lamps flickering faintly on the walls.

Parker walked up the spiral staircase to the second floor and saw a closed door.

A long time ago, he passed his first test here, drank the Wanderer Potion, and became a Sequence Nine Mysterious Person.

Now, he had to pass the second test here and be promoted to a mysterious person of Sequence Eight.

A determined look flashed in Parker's eyes. He stretched out his hands and pressed on the door, pushing it with all his strength.

The door made a slight sound, and endless light shone through the gradually widening gap in the door, completely covering Parker's body.

Parker only felt the light in his vision getting brighter and brighter, and then he lost consciousness.

It seemed like a long time had passed, and yet it seemed like only a moment had passed.

Parker's eyes were gray and shrouded in shadows.

In the silence, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Peter, Peter? Wake up, you're going to be late."

"Late, late?"

The shadows in front of Parker's eyes receded like the tide, and everything around him became clear.

He saw Uncle Ben's familiar face, with a kind smile and traces of time.

Strangely, Uncle Ben has returned to his old appearance.

Parker rubbed his eyes in confusion, and said in a puzzled voice: "Uncle Ben, why are you getting older?" "Haven't I always been like this?"

Uncle Ben touched his wrinkled face and raised his eyebrows: "Okay, stop talking nonsense and get up quickly. Don't you have to visit a laboratory today?"

"Visit the laboratory?" Parker frowned. Didn't he remember that he was going to take a test?

Test? What test was it?

Parker patted his mush-filled head, trying to clear his thoughts, but everything seemed to be shrouded in thick fog and he couldn't remember anything.

At Uncle Ben's urging, he gave it no more thought and quickly turned over and stood up, almost jumping off the bed.

The sunlight poured into the room through the gaps in the curtains, and the warm light passed over his body, casting mottled shadows on the floor.

Parker didn't notice that the shadow under his feet was swaying strangely.

He quickly finished washing up and saw himself in the mirror looking a little haggard, but he didn't have time to look at himself carefully.

He quickly changed his clothes and hurried downstairs.

Aunt May still looked at him with warm eyes as always. Her smile was like the spring sunshine, warm and gentle. The kitchen was filled with the aroma of breakfast, which whetted his appetite.

"Peter, take these quickly and eat them in the car, otherwise we won't have enough time." Aunt May handed the packed breakfast to Parker, concern in her eyes.

Parker took the breakfast and smiled: "Thank you Aunt May, I'll be leaving now."

"Go quickly, your Uncle Ben is waiting for you outside." Aunt May's voice contained a hint of urging, but more of concern.

As if to echo her words, a car horn was heard outside.

Parker didn't hesitate any longer, took his breakfast and walked out the door.

He took a breath of the morning air, which was fresh and moist, with the fragrance of morning dew, making people feel refreshed.

He looked down at the breakfast bag in his hand and felt a warm feeling in his heart. This was what Aunt Mei had carefully prepared early in the morning.

The sky outside the door has been dyed golden by the sun, there are more pedestrians on the street, and occasionally a few birds can be heard singing.

Parker walked to the front of the car and saw Uncle Ben sitting in the driver's seat with the window rolled down and a kind smile on Uncle Ben's face.

"Get in the car, Peter, time waits for no one." Uncle Ben patted the car body, with a hint of urgency in his voice.

"Okay!" Parker responded, quickly opened the car door and got in.

He opened the breakfast bag, which contained a sandwich carefully prepared by Aunt May and a bottle of milk. The aroma of the sandwich filled his nose, and Parker's appetite was immediately whetted.

The car started and slowly drove away from the house.

Parker was eating breakfast while looking out the window. The scenes on the street passed by quickly, as if everything was urging him to speed up.

The morning light shone through the car window onto his face, and Parker felt a little comfortable.

"Uncle Ben, where are we going?" After finishing breakfast, Parker turned to ask Uncle Ben who was driving nearby.

"Columbia University, to visit the biology laboratory? Didn't you tell me that last night? You also asked me to wake you up early, but you actually got up late." Uncle Ben looked at Parker with some confusion and helplessness.

"Visiting the biological laboratory at Columbia University? Oh, yes, that's true. But..."

Parker's face was full of surprise: "Didn't this happen a long time ago? I should be working in the laboratory of the Austen Group now?"

"work?"

Uncle Ben couldn't help laughing. "Peter, you must be too excited and had a related dream last night. Remember, you are still a high school student now."

"Is this a dream?"

Parker frowned even more tightly: "So, Uncle Ben, you are not Spider-Man either?"

"Spider-Man? What is that? Me with eight legs? Peter, your dream is a little weird. Don't watch too many horror movies." Uncle Ben laughed even more happily. His laughter seemed to infect Parker, and Parker couldn't help laughing.

"Oh, come on, that's not the case at all." Parker sighed, looking out the window at the busy road, feeling a sense of inexplicable happiness and melancholy, making him unable to figure out whether he was happy or unhappy.

His heart was filled with doubts and uneasiness, and this feeling made him feel a little at a loss.

The car continued to move forward, but Parker's thoughts had already flown far away. Strange images kept rolling in his mind, as if something happened in a movie.

Maybe, it really was just a dream.

"Peter, what are you thinking about?" Uncle Ben's voice brought Parker back from his thoughts.

"I was wondering, if this is all just a dream, can I start over again?" Parker said confusedly.

"restart?"

Uncle Ben smiled and said, "Peter, every day is a new beginning. Whether it is a dream or reality, as long as you face it with your heart and work hard, you will definitely find your direction."

Parker nodded, and the fog in his heart seemed to dissipate a little.

The car drove into the campus of Columbia University. Uncle Ben parked the car and patted Parker on the shoulder: "Okay, Peter, we're here, let's go."

"Ok!"

Parker took a deep breath, nodded, opened the car door, and took a firm step.
