Chapter 766 The Origin of Fear - Desperate Spider
With the help of the rope, Peter quickly reached the top floor.

Why not go to the top floor? That's a good question. Not to mention that an unidentified object fell from the sky and turned the top floor into a sea of ​​fire, the elevator in the Parker Industrial Building cannot go directly to the top floor.

This is specially designed to prevent anyone from breaking into the confidential areas of the building. If you want to reach the top floor, you must take the elevator.

However, the elevator that could reach the top floor was definitely not usable now, so Peter could only hope that the building's safety stairs could still be used.

When the elevator's safety door was opened, a cloud of smoke rushed towards him. Fortunately, Peter had put on a protective mask in advance, otherwise this puff of smoke would have killed him.

Peter scanned the indoor environment through the eyepiece. Fortunately, the flames were not as terrible as he had expected. He just didn't know why the fire sprinklers in the building were not activated, otherwise the fire would not have spread.

Peter made a rough calculation and based on the integrity of the building, he guessed that the object that fell from the sky should not be very big.

It should be that the thing happened to fall on some flammable and explosive material, which caused the fire. In this case, relying on the armor I developed for Cindy and her own physical fitness, as long as Cindy doesn't get too close to the explosive, she will not be seriously injured.

Feeling a little relieved, Peter stepped onto the floor. Just as he was about to follow the route he remembered to the emergency stairs, he heard a sound of breaking air behind him.

Before Peter could turn around, something hit him on the lower back. Although the thing was powerful, it was soft in texture and did not cause any pain when it hit him.

The next second, Peter could feel the thing exploding at his lower back, and then a ball of white substance instantly wrapped him up, leaving only his head and a hand holding a tool exposed.

The obstruction of his legs caused Peter to lose his balance, and his body fell forward involuntarily and finally hit the ground.

"Ouch!"

Peter cried out in pain, and he looked down at the things that tied him up and was suddenly surprised, because Peter recognized the things that tied him up.

What tied Peter up was the spider silk bullet he developed. It was also one of the main attack modes of the spider silk launcher he helped Cindy develop. The purpose was to trap the enemy without hurting them.

Peter never imagined that one day he would be tied down by his own invention.

Peter raised his head with an effort, and with the help of the flickering firelight, he saw a slender black shadow in the dim elevator shaft. The shadow looked so familiar.

"Cindy?" Peter asked tentatively.

"Is that you, Cindy? Stop it! Untie me quickly! We need to get out quickly. It might get even more dangerous if we wait any longer!"

Peter's shouting served not only the purpose of asking questions, but also to give himself courage. After all, although the other person was slender and leaned against the wall in a very unscientific posture without falling, this could not be used as a basis in this world full of all kinds of superhumans.

For example, the Spider-Woman that Cindy admires has the same super powers as Cindy.

Perhaps annoyed by Peter's noise, the black shadow hiding in the elevator shaft leaned forward until its entire body was off the wall. Finally, it stood in the air without relying on anything, and floated out of the elevator shaft.

"Cin...dy?" Peter widened his eyes. A familiar yet unfamiliar figure appeared in front of him.

I said she was familiar because it was indeed Cindy, and I said she was unfamiliar because her clothes and temperament were completely different from the little girl I had in mind.

Cindy was no longer wearing the close-fitting combat suit he had made for her, but a Viking-style armor. Most of her body was made of an unknown material that looked like cloth, while her arms and thighs were made of a metallic but flexible material.

In the center of her chest was a giant, glowing red spider symbol. The crimson glow, combined with the surrounding firelight, allowed Peter to clearly see the several scars on Cindy's face. Her once lovely face was now marred by the hideous scars.

"Your face? What's going on Cindy?"

Peter struggled, twisting his body like a caterpillar, which showed his concern for Cindy.

"Hypocritical." Cindy interrupted Peter's actions in a cold voice. The latter showed a surprised expression, obviously not understanding what the former meant.

"What do you mean? What happened Cindy?"

Cindy didn't say anything, but stretched out her right hand. Just when Peter didn't understand what she was doing, a sharp sound of breaking through the air came from behind him.

"call!"

When Peter came to his senses, a huge object had stopped right above him. When he saw what it was, he screamed in fright.

Peter couldn't see the entirety of the huge object, so he didn't know what it was, but he could see clearly what was hanging on it.

Is that... Cindy?
That's right, in addition to Cindy floating outside the elevator door, there is another Cindy, but this Cindy is dead. There is a big hole in her stomach, and a sharp cone is drilling out of her abdomen.

This Cindy looked like she had been dead for a long time, because the blood in her abdomen had already coagulated, and even when she was hovering above Peter, not a drop of blood flowed out.

Because what happened before his eyes was so shocking that Peter could not say anything except screaming.

"Want to know what happened?" Scarface Cindy said coldly.

"Okay, then I'll tell you, I was replaced by this guy a week ago. During this week, she has been torturing me constantly! She's pried everything she wants to know out of me!"

"I have been praying in my heart. I hope my brother can find out that his sister has been replaced. I hope you can expose this imposter and come to save me. But the reality is that the scars on my face are getting bigger and bigger!"

At this point, Cindy's emotions became obviously excited. As soon as she finished speaking, a burst of scarlet fighting spirit burst out from her body, and Peter, who was lying on the ground, was thrown several meters away.

"Wow!" Peter cried out in pain and finally came out of his shock.

"Another you? How is this possible? How could this happen?"

There was a hint of imperceptible disappointment in Cindy's cold eyes, and she spoke again in a cold voice.

"It seems that you have never noticed anything wrong. In that case..."

Before she finished speaking, Cindy stretched out her right hand again, and the object with the body of another Cindy hanging on it flew into her hand. Peter was finally able to see the whole picture of the thing.

It was a huge hammer, about as tall as a person, with a pointed end and a flat end.
