In American comics, drawing cards reveals wave-particle duality

Chapter 117: Waterway Array, Lizard VS Spider

When Peter took out the manuscript and told George the whole story, George didn't choose to believe it at all.

"Peter...what nonsense are you talking about?"

George's brows were furrowed, and his eyes flashed with obvious displeasure.

"A respected scientist turned into a monster? This is not a cartoon, but the real world... Do you think we are making a science fiction movie?"

"Uncle, I know it sounds unbelievable, but it's true."

"Dr. Connors' experiment has gone wrong and he is now in great danger. If we don't act, the consequences will be disastrous."

Hearing this, Sheriff George sighed deeply and rubbed his temples.

The bridge's surveillance was deliberately destroyed by the attacker last night, and based on citizen eyewitness investigations, the police initially concluded that it was a terrorist with an antisocial personality who manipulated bionic machines to commit crimes.

You know, Osborn Enterprises has cooperated with the military to create bionic animal robots in the past few years.

"Look, kid... I understand you may have good intentions, but we can't harass a renowned scientist over some unfounded accusations."

"Unless you can provide solid evidence, we can't take any action."

"The judicial process is the most important thing."

"Otherwise, we can't even apply for a search warrant."

Hearing this, Peter had no choice but to walk out of the police station with the manuscript. To be honest, he did not have any evidence to identify Dr. Connors.

Since there is no evidence...then go find it!

Peter's mind raced, trying to figure out where Dr. Connors might be.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through my mind.

According to biological signs and characteristics...

Lizards...wet...dark...

Could it be in the sewer?

Following logical reasoning, Peter tried to put himself in the role of Dr. Connors.

If he was the Lizard Man... after the attack, he would definitely choose to hide under the city-wide police wanted order.

Changing back to human form is another matter, but if he continues to stay in this form, he will definitely find a dark and humid habitat.

The darkest and most damp places in New York are either the slums or the sewers.

Thinking of this, Peter took a deep breath, took his camera, and followed the navigation to the main hub of a city sewer.

Descending along the rusty escalator, Peter soon arrived at the hub center.

This place is well connected, and waterways from all over converge here.

Based on the "natural" structure here, Peter specially climbed every pipe.

At the same time, the high-viscosity spider silk is straightened and tightened, and the spider silk taken out of each pipe is intertwined and linked together to weave into a complex network structure like a spider web.

Peter's design was inspired by the tactile system of real spiders, and the web is able to detect the vibration frequency of any pipe.

Moreover, the drainage system in the sewer is not yet open, and there is no interference from misjudgment of water flow. It is definitely easy for a huge lizardman to sense it.

After doing all this, Peter lay on the spider web, holding the camera and closing his eyes.

In fact, his extremely sharp five senses were always feeling the vibration of the spider web, and if there was anything wrong, he would get up at the first opportunity.

But before Peter closed his eyes for long, an abnormal wave spread through the spider silk.

Peter opened his eyes suddenly, his pupils suddenly contracted, and adrenaline quickly surged in his body.

That was not a vibration caused by an ordinary mouse or water flow. That kind of force and rhythm could only be caused by a huge and agile creature.

Peter felt an inexplicable sense of excitement and fear. He knew that Connors might be getting closer and closer.

Following the guidance of the spider silk, Peter slowly crawled towards one of the trembling pipes.

Entering the pipe, the smell of decay and dampness hit me in the face, and the mold on the wall was distorted into terrifying shapes under the dim light.

Peter took every step carefully, for fear of stepping on some unknown object and making a noise, which would alert the enemy.

As they went deeper, Peter's spider sense began to sound alarms frantically.

It felt like countless needles dancing on his skin, and Peter knew that the monster might be not far away.

Turning a dark corner, Peter finally saw the creature that "used to be" Dr. Connors. At that moment, Peter felt his blood freeze.

In the dim light, the lizardman's scales gleamed with a sickly luster, as if covered with a layer of sticky venom.

Its body was far larger than Peter had imagined, its muscles bulging beneath its scales, containing terrifying power.

Most disturbing of all were the eyes.

The golden vertical pupils were full of wildness and madness, but there seemed to be a trace of humanity left deep inside, which was a look of pain and struggle.

The once kind face on that poster has been completely distorted into a creepy monster.

Peter saw yellow fangs protruding from the corners of the mouth, stained with dark red blood.

The Lizard Man seemed to be feeding, its claws sunk deep into the carcass of an unidentifiable animal. The smell of blood and viscera filled the air, mixing with the stench of sewer decay to form a sickening stench.

Seeing this, Peter felt a strong nausea, but he forced himself to remain calm and try his best not to be discovered by the Lizard Man.

At this moment, the lizard man suddenly raised his head, and his golden eyes stared straight at the shadow where Peter was hiding.

A low roar came from the depths of his throat, and Peter couldn't help but meet the lizard man's eyes.

Seeing the murderous look in the lizard man's eyes, Peter felt a chill run through his body instantly...

It seems like I came at the wrong time...

At this critical moment, the lizard man pounced forward, his sharp claws tearing through the air and pointing straight at Peter's throat.

Peter, using his spider-sense, reacted within a thousandth of a second.

He leaned back quickly, feeling the chill of the sharp claws scraping across his mask. He used the momentum to do a backflip and landed steadily on the wall, his heart pounding like thunder.

"Dr. Connors, please wake up!"

Peter yelled, his voice echoing in the narrow tunnel.

Hearing these words, a hint of humanistic thought suddenly flashed in the lizard man's eyes.

Oh? You know my name?

Then I can't keep you...

Thinking of this, the lizard man let out a deafening roar and pounced on Peter again.

But this time, Peter chose to face it head-on.

He shot out spider silk, accurately sticking to the lizard man's eyes, and at the same time used the force to jump over the opponent's head.

The lizardman, having lost his vision, waved his claws wildly, tearing up the spider web in front of him.

Peter took the opportunity to shoot out several spider silks in a row, trying to bind his opponent.

However, the Lizard Man's power was far beyond Peter's imagination.

It easily broke free from the spider silk, and its tail lashed at Peter like a fierce whip.

Peter barely dodged it with the help of his spider sense, but was still hit in the abdomen by the tail.

The pain was so severe that he felt dizzy. The Lizard Man took the opportunity to grab Peter's ankle and slam him to the ground.
