Marvel: I became an ancestor by sacrificing offerings.

"Today is truly my lucky day!"

Maxwell Dillon thought to himself.

Despite being paralyzed in bed and having his mother spend more than 80% of his salary each month, he still berated his mother as a good-for-nothing.

Despite being ignored by the Osborne Group and suffering all sorts of harassment and disdain, Max couldn't help but hum softly when he thought of his idol, Ghost Spider, who had personally encouraged him.

Then... he was forced to work overtime and was neglected by his colleagues, resulting in him being electrocuted and falling into the genetically modified electric eel observation room where he was relentlessly charged by countless electric eels.

In his last moments before losing consciousness, Maxwell thought:

Osborne, what do you owe me here? How will you pay me back? (Electronic music)

……

Meanwhile, William Baker, the "Sandman," transformed into a wisp of sand and quietly arrived at the bedside of his daughter, who suffered from congenital heart disease.

Although he stubbornly maintained the posture he had adopted when he parted from his daughter so that she would recognize him, he did not dare to see her at this moment.

He was afraid—afraid that his presence would hinder his wife and daughter, and even more afraid that his daughter would miss the opportunity to receive treatment.

In the United States, where even appendicitis can quickly push a middle-class person into financial ruin, William's daughter's congenital heart disease is a bottomless pit that devours money.

Although there is no shortage of hearts available for transplant, the money and time required to perform this surgery are still astronomical.

The daughter is now only surviving thanks to donations from charitable organizations.

If it were discovered that her daughter had connections to an escaped convict like herself, the charity would likely immediately cancel her aid program.

Looking at his daughter, whose brows were still furrowed even in her sleep, the sandman, who had been hesitant, finally made up his mind.

His wife and daughter are his everything. He would give anything to cure his daughter and allow his wife and daughter to live a healthy and happy life... including his own life!

With that thought in mind, William Baker quietly left his trailer house and headed towards a nearby jewelry store...

Unfortunately, he had just used his quicksand arm to transform into a mace and smashed the jewelry store's bulletproof glass.

The next second, Ghost Spider, dressed in a black and white striped suit, descended from the sky with the NYPD:

"Dude, I don't think this is a good idea. You don't want to spend the rest of your life in jail after you get back to Lake Island, do you?"

……

Five days later, Dubai, Burj Al Arab Hotel.

Watching the surveillance footage, Dr. Ethan, who was just a greyhound, was panting as he tried to weld the steel plates onto Tony's body.

Peter knew that it was almost time for him to make his heroic entrance.

Stepping onto the flying skateboard, they immediately set off towards the Ten Rings' stronghold.

At the same time Peter was heading to the base, the Ten Rings terrorists noticed Tony and Ethan's suspicious activity, and a large number of armed henchmen began to rush towards the direction of the laboratory.

To help Tony get through the loading screen of the program, Ethan gritted his teeth, picked up a submachine gun, and chose to sacrifice himself to buy Tony time with his own body.

Tony's Iron Man suit is a success!

Although it is bulky and ugly, it is sturdy enough to completely withstand the impact of bullets.

With this suit of armor, Tony was able to wreak havoc in the cramped cave, until... a weirdo dressed in a black and red suit appeared in front of him.

Although the other party's attire was clearly different from that of the Ten Rings terrorists, Tony, who was already in a killing frenzy because Ethan had been shot, didn't care about that.

He maneuvered the clumsy mech toward Peter and swung his fist, slamming it into Peter's chest.

He thought this punch would send Peter flying like he would with those terrorists, but what happened next was completely unexpected by Tony.

One hand.

A hand with well-proportioned joints, long and fair skin, clearly untouched by heavy physical labor, easily caught Tony's "steel fist".

Even though Tony had already turned the power of his armor to the maximum, the force still mysteriously vanished the moment it touched the other's palm, as if it had disappeared into thin air.

No, it didn't disappear!

Looking at the clearly visible finger marks on the knuckle armor, an absurd and terrifying thought surfaced in Tony's mind:

It wasn't that his armor had malfunctioned; this weirdo in front of him... actually took his attack with his bare body!

Da da da……

Just as the two were locked in a stalemate, the bald leader of the Ten Rings in Afghanistan felt he had seized a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

He first ordered his men to open fire on the two men, then he himself picked up an RPG and arrogantly shouted at Peter and Tony:

"You two monsters, you fucking die!"

snort~

As they were talking, the bald boss pulled the trigger, and the howitzer, trailing a long plume of flame, hurtled toward the two of them.

"Fuck!"

Tony was completely numb at that moment.

He couldn't understand how things had turned out this way.

In the nick of time, he only had time to manipulate his armored body to shield Ethan, who was already on the verge of death.

Although he, a physics genius, knew very well that the steel armor could not absorb the full impact of the howitzer, and that Ethan, who was already seriously injured, would most likely still die.

But he still acted almost instinctively.

He was willing to swear on the Stark name that he would do anything to keep Ethan alive!

Just as Tony was "praying" in his heart, he found that he actually saw a "miracle"!

He saw that the weirdo who had been blocking his way hadn't been riddled with bullets.

At the same time, this guy did something that almost made his eyes pop out of their sockets – a truly amazing move.

That guy... actually stretched out his hand with lightning speed the instant the grenade came flying.

Then, he actually intercepted the howitzer!

He even just threw it back, back, gone, gone...

boom!

The grenade exploded right in front of the stunned Ten Rings terrorists.

Even until their dying moments, these people couldn't believe that everything that had happened was real...

At the same time, Peter finally spoke:

"Would you like to continue testing your armor's capabilities, Mr. Tony Stark?"

Upon hearing Peter speak in English, Tony was initially taken aback, then asked excitedly:

"Are you with the military?"

"No, I don't belong to any organization," Peter replied coolly.

"I'm just an anti-hero who happened to be passing by."

At this point, he glanced at Ethan, who was about to die, and suddenly spoke:

"By the way, do you need help rescuing that bald guy over there? My fees are very low; all you need to do is hand over this suit of armor you're wearing."

Baldness?

Tony paused for a moment, then suddenly realized what was happening.

Holy crap, Ethan's still lying on the ground!
