Dimensional Invasion: I Can Fish for All Heavens

Chapter 276 I can spend the whole day with you; the superman who gets stronger just by sunbathing.

"Hey, Captain, you don't understand."

"Swinging around on webs isn't just for showing off; it's style! It's tradition! It's the soul of Spider-Man!"

Jason nimbly twirled in the air and landed steadily on a crossbeam, then spoke to the captain.

"I think you just think it's fun."

The captain shook his head and said with a hint of helplessness.

Style? Tradition? Soul?

Only Spider-Man, as a "superhero," can embody these qualities, right? What does it have to do with spider silk?

"That's a valid way to put it."

"And it's more interesting to fight like this, isn't it?"

"However, if you want to fight head-on, Captain, I'm open to that too."

As Jason spoke, he flipped off the crossbeam and landed lightly, without making a sound the moment his feet touched the ground.

"Alright, get ready, Captain."

"I'm coming."

The moment he finished speaking, Jason's body shot towards the captain like an arrow. His movements were so fast that they almost left afterimages. His right fist, accompanied by the sound of air being cut, went straight for the captain's face.

The captain's pupils contracted slightly, and at the critical moment, he dodged to the side, while his alloy shield was held at an almost unbelievable angle in front of his chest.

"boom!"

Jason's fist slammed into the shield, producing a loud boom. The captain felt a tremendous force coming from the shield, which made his arm go numb and caused him to slide back several meters uncontrollably.

"The power is good."

The captain steadied himself, unsurprised by Jason's strength. Using the momentum of his retreat, he suddenly changed direction, throwing his shield like a frisbee.

Jason's spider-sense gave him an instant warning, and his body almost instinctively leaned backward.

The shield grazed his nose, the force of the wind stinging his cheek. But before he could straighten up, the captain anticipated his movement, lunging forward and delivering a powerful right punch to Jason's abdomen.

"Well!"

Jason grunted, but his muscles tensed the moment he was punched, allowing him to take the blow head-on.

His spider-sense allowed him to anticipate the attack, but the captain's combat experience was too rich; the angle and timing of the punch were so perfect that it was impossible to avoid.

However, in terms of strength, it is still within his tolerance range.

It just hurts a little.

"It's my turn."

Jason smiled excitedly, grabbed the captain's wrists with both hands, and the captain felt an irresistible force coming at him, and the next second the world spun around him.

Jason slammed him to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw.

"boom!"

The training ground groaned under the strain. The captain, enduring the excruciating pain in his back, pulled his hand away from Jason's arm. He didn't want to be slapped back and forth like "Loki."

"What a troublesome ability."

The captain adjusted his breathing and assumed a fighting stance.

"Remember to tell me if you get tired, Captain."

Jason noticed the captain's breathing and teased him.

"I can talk to you all day long!"

The captain spoke to Jason, and then the two figures collided again.

With decades of combat experience, every parry and counterattack he made was almost perfect, like a textbook example; while Jason, although far inferior to the Captain in this respect, was able to easily evade the Captain's attacks thanks to his extraordinary physical abilities and spider sense.

The sounds of fists and feet clashing in the training ground were like a storm, and the ground trembled beneath their feet.

Time passed slowly, and the captain's movements began to slow down due to exhaustion, but Jason remained energetic, as if he had an engine that never stopped running inside him.

Each of his punches carried terrifying power capable of piercing steel plates, and every movement was so fast that it was difficult to see with the naked eye. If it weren't for the captain's rich combat experience, he would probably have been defeated long ago.

"Ha, it seems I really am getting old."

Thirty minutes later, the captain stood with his hands on his knees, his uniform soaked with sweat.

Jason, standing in front of him, was only slightly out of breath, but his eyes still gleamed with excitement.

"Captain, don't you still have superpowers?"

"Although I don't know what kind of superpower it is, judging from Coulson's words, it must be a very powerful superpower."

"Aren't you going to use it?"

Jason tilted his head, curiously examining the panting captain.

The captain slowly stood up, picked up a towel from the side and wiped the sweat from his face, his eyes deep and calm.

"This level of combat effectiveness is sufficient."

"If even superpowers are used, then it's not a friendly spar, it's a bloody battle."

A hint of regret flashed in Jason's eyes.

"That's a real shame."

"I'm quite curious about the superpower you awakened, Captain."

The training ground door opened after the two finished their fight, and Wilson strode in with steady steps.

His gaze swept over the two of them, and he said in a calm tone:
“Roger, your current strength, without using your powers, can only be considered as Tier 2. Although you are very close to Tier 3, there is still a gap.” “After all, you are not the real Steve. Even if you obtained his template, you could not have his uniqueness in the Marvel world. Being able to achieve this level is already quite good.”

"After using your special ability, you are not weak even among those at the third tier, but you still need to be careful to deliver a fatal blow."

"Your mental strength cannot withstand your use of superpowers for too long."

After he finished speaking, his gaze turned to Jason:
“Jason, your strength is already considered strong among the third tier, but you lack the ability to attack over a wide area, and you are still a bit short of the fourth tier.”

"However, in a one-on-one battle, some fourth-tier powerhouses with only one ability may not be your match."

Wilson paused, then added.

Roger draped the towel over his shoulder, neither confirming nor denying the assessment.

He knows his limits better than anyone else.

That power bound by pain is less of a help and more of a torment.

He didn't want to use that ability unless absolutely necessary.

Jason, on the other hand, was somewhat excited:

"So, does that mean I'm not far from being a top-tier combatant?"

"By the way, where would my current strength rank in the Great Xia Dynasty?"

Wilson's expression suddenly became somewhat complicated.

Although the Beacon has successfully recruited many powerful superhumans due to a series of strategic adjustments, and even attracted holders of celestial treasures like Roger and Jason to join S.H.I.E.L.D., it still lags far behind Great Xia, which is teeming with powerful individuals.

Leaving aside legendary experts like Ye Xuan and Elder Zhong who have already broken through to the sixth rank, they currently don't even have a single fifth-rank expert.

Jason's strength, comparable to that of a fourth-tier cultivator, would make him virtually unbeatable in the Lighthouse.

But if it were placed in Daxia...

"You are still far from being as powerful as those in the Great Xia Dynasty."

"In our analysis, excluding dimensional beings, your strength only ranks eighth among the extraordinary beings in Great Xia."

Wilson said directly.

Although according to the information in the Great Xia's list of extraordinary individuals, only Shen Xuan has reached the fourth rank, Shen Xuan is a Kamen Rider, and among all the extraordinary individuals in Great Xia, his ranking is unique in that it does not take into account the factor of spiritual power.

Others, such as Gu Che, Lu Jing, and Lin Ruoxi, have already reached the fourth level in terms of strength, but they are only included in the third level because their spiritual power does not meet the fourth level standard.

They completely overwhelm third-tier opponents and cannot be treated as normal third-tier opponents at all.

Although the standard of spiritual power in the Great Xia Dynasty is unknown, there is no doubt that Jason has absolutely no ability to fight them.

Without referencing the far-above-the-human performances of various Spider-Men in the Marvel universe, but solely based on Jason's own strength data, this is their answer.

Even if it weren't for the fact that the strength of "Lin Xiu," who obtained the template of "Tezuka Kunimitsu" from the "Prince of Tennis" world on the list of extraordinary individuals in the Great Xia Dynasty, was not entirely certain, and that there were significant differences in the level of the "treasures of the heavens" obtained by the subsequent individuals, it would be even more remarkable.

They wouldn't rank Jason eighth, but further down the list.

No amount of caution and attention should be taken when assessing the strength of the Great Xia Dynasty.

The combat capabilities they display should only be used as a reference and should never be completely trusted.

Therefore, the S.H.I.E.L.D. analysis team wished they could raise the power estimates of these strong individuals on the list by 30%, only then would they feel that the data had a certain degree of authenticity.

How enviable!
Wilson thought about the powerful figures that Great Xia possessed and couldn't help but sigh softly.

Since the Lighthouse strategy was adjusted, they have only managed to recruit two holders of celestial treasures, despite their utmost trust.

Although both are precious abilities from the Marvel universe, they are holders of cosmic treasures who have obtained the abilities of Spider-Man Peter Parker and the template of Captain Steve Rogers, and even fulfilled the responsibility of saving the world in Marvel.

But it's true that their potential is not high.

Even though Marvel is very popular in the US and around the world, what they want are people with even greater potential.

If someone with the "Superman" template could join.
No, forget it.

Superman is a monster who can grow stronger by basking in the sun, even possessing near-limitless growth potential; if a real person obtained such power, they would definitely be seduced by it and want to rule the world.

Superman in the DC universe is someone you can't trust; you feel an instinctive fear of that level of power.

Not to mention people in the real world.

If something like "Homelander" were to appear, it would be a disaster for the Lighthouse.

What they need is not just strength, but partners who can integrate into S.H.I.E.L.D. and protect this land.

"Eighth place? That sounds pretty good."

"They're already in the top ten."

Jason was completely oblivious to Wilson's complicated expression. Upon hearing that he was ranked eighth on the Great Xia's list of extraordinary individuals, his eyes lit up, and he said with some surprise.

"It's only eighth place, there's no need for you to be so excited, is there?"

Wilson looked at his worthless appearance and couldn't help but facepalm.

"Because Great Xia is now the most powerful country in the world, isn't it?"

"Being ranked eighth among the strongest countries is certainly something to be happy about!"

Jason clasped his hands behind his head, his tone light and sincere, his eyes sparkling with undisguised admiration, just like those who once yearned for the lighthouse.

"."

Wilson remained silent for a moment.

Once upon a time, when the United States was the world's leading superpower, didn't young people around the world look up to them with the same eyes?
The cycle of history always carries a touch of irony.
