Restart, Spider-Man!

Chapter 3: Restart, Spider-Man! [3]



[You have been eliminated and cannot receive a resurrection quota. Reward: Strength +0.1 tons.]

[You have 9 restart opportunities left. Would you like to restart?]

Back on the massive spider web, Xia Luo let out a long breath and clicked [Restart].

Restarting the resurrection match—this was his real cheat!

Moreover, every time he restarted, he received a small reward. Over time, these small gains would accumulate, and eventually, he would catch up to the other Spider-Men.

As mysterious power flowed into his body, Xia Luo felt his bones crackle, his whole body loosen, and his muscle density increased significantly.

His previous strength was only a measly one ton, so a 0.1-ton boost might not mean much for other Spider-Men, but for him, a ten percent improvement in his stats was a big deal.

With increased strength, his overall physical attributes would passively grow as well, which reassured Xia Luo. He no longer had to worry about one attribute spiking too much and causing his body to collapse from imbalance.

If he won this resurrection match, ten tons of strength would be enough to free him from the predicament of being targeted by the Green Goblin.

Through this trial, he had learned that the participant Peter Parker was the Lizard, with terrifying strength of at least twenty tons, and his defense was even more daunting.

Although the Lizard's speed was slower, if Xia Luo's Spider-Sense didn't react quickly enough, he wouldn't be able to dodge the Lizard's attacks either.

As for the Chitauri soldiers, their firepower was also overwhelming. Xia Luo could barely handle one or two at a time, but definitely not ten.

And Tony…

 "It looked like he was using the nano suit… Could it be Endgame Tony?" Xia Luo speculated.

That would be a bit of a problem.

With the firepower of the nano suit, Tony could easily win the MVP of the resurrection match.

If this was Endgame Tony who snapped his fingers, even Thanos would have to take a knee.

Xia Luo had no chance of winning.

He figured that if Tony won this resurrection match, the timeline would move on to Avengers 5.

He had to keep trying.

As his thoughts wandered, he was once again swallowed by the void and brought back to the Amazing Spider-Man universe.

[Scene: The Amazing Spider-Man Universe]

[Mission: Go to the clock tower and save Gwen Stacy from falling.]

In his second resurrection match, the system prompt remained the same.

Xia Luo landed on the side of a skyscraper, and since the match hadn't started yet, he couldn't leave his spot.

Recalling the last resurrection match, he guessed that the faster Tony and the Chitauri soldiers were further away from the clock tower.

However, Lizard Parker, though slower in movement, had reached the clock tower almost at the same time as Xia Luo. Clearly, his starting position was closer than anyone else's.

Everyone arrived at the clock tower at nearly the same time, so it wasn't random.

Thirty seconds later, the countdown ended.

Xia Luo flipped off the building, with the wind howling past him. He shot webs from his wrists and swung down, diving into a dark alley below.

This time, he wasn't planning to jump in right away.

However, just as he landed in the alley, he saw a disheveled couple hiding behind a garbage bin, angrily shouting at a shadow in the dark.

"Shit, there's a pervert spying on us!"

"Get lost, or I'll break your little buddy!"

Xia Luo: "..."

Great, this round's starting off wild, huh?

Just then, several blasts of fire roared overhead.

In the alley, Xia Luo glanced at the still-cursing couple and shot a web to pull the garbage bin in front of them.

"You bastard, what are you doing?!"

"Damn it, I'll shove your eyeballs into the sewer…"

Swish!

Before they could react, Xia Luo's webs shot out again, snatching away their clothes.

Right in front of them, Xia Luo whistled, wrapped their clothes in his web, and hung them ten meters up on the wall.

"See you later, you two shy little lovebirds. Next time, remember to cover your faces."

With that, he leapt up the wall and swung away with his webs.

As he hurried toward the clock tower, Xia Luo's eyes stayed fixed on the flickers of fire ahead.

In the night sky, Chitauri soldiers relentlessly fired energy beams at Tony, but he dodged them with ease.

Following them, Xia Luo quickly began to fall behind.

"Oh, it's Spider-Man!"

"No, wait, Spider-Man's still at the power plant!"

Soon, amidst the exclamations of passersby, Xia Luo leisurely landed on a residential building near the clock tower.

By now, the clock tower had become quite lively.

"Peter, we're best friends, but you wouldn't even give me a drop of your blood."

On the rooftop, Harry, looking monstrous and deranged, grinned wickedly at Peter Parker and threw Gwen off the roof without hesitation.

"No!!"

Peter Parker screamed and immediately leapt off the clock tower.

Webs shot out in rapid succession, wrapping around the plummeting Gwen.

Boom!!

Before Peter could catch her, a pumpkin bomb exploded, the blazing fire spreading outwards. The webs melted in the intense heat, and Gwen fell rapidly with the blast wave.

"Hahaha, despair, Peter!" Harry laughed maniacally.

"No!!"

Peter Parker's eyes widened, but just as he was about to break through the explosion, Harry blocked him, preventing him from saving her in time.

At that moment, a green lizard-like creature quickly crawled up the clock tower and leapt toward Gwen.

"Professor Connors?" Peter Parker gasped.

Professor Connors was supposed to be...

However, just as Lizard Parker was about to catch Gwen, a fiery blast echoed through the night, and Lizard Parker was blown straight into the clock tower by the violent firepower.

Boom!!

The clock tower exploded, sending tiny gears flying in all directions, and Gwen's figure began to fade from Lizard Parker's view.

"No…"

The next moment, Tony swooped down from the sky, with nano weapons floating behind him at breakneck speed. In the blink of an eye, they had caught up to Gwen and lifted her from the air.

"Was that a lizard just now?" Tony blinked.

"Sir, I've searched for you—lizards belong to the genus Lacerta of the reptile order…"

"Friday, your humor is improving."

"Thank you."

Seeing the nano suit dive down, Harry became enraged and threw a barrage of pumpkin bombs.

"You weirdos can't save her!"

"No…"

Peter Parker's face changed. As he swung through the air, he shot webs and managed to catch two of the pumpkin bombs.

Boom! Boom!

Explosions erupted one after another, and Peter Parker was swept away by the blast, as the massive clock slowly tilted and then fell toward Tony.

"What a hassle."

"Jarvis—no, Friday."

"Understood, sir."

The nano metal on Tony's shoulder rippled, releasing several micro missiles to destroy the falling clock.

Boom!

As debris rained down, Tony was about to shield Gwen from the falling glass, but the Chitauri soldiers swooped in again.

Their laser weapons fired continuously, forcing Tony to dodge while unleashing powerful counterattacks with his nano suit.

For him, dealing with these minions was no challenge.

But Gwen didn't have much time.

Bang!!

Suddenly, there was a loud crash as Lizard Parker burst through a wall in the clock tower and leapt out again.

This time, Lizard Parker finally caught the falling Gwen, a smile spreading across his face.

"I won't let you die."

In Lizard Parker's arms, Gwen, still shaken, looked at the terrifying creature before her, but noticed a trace of sorrow in his eyes.

It was a strange expression, almost as if...

Thud!!

The next second, the floor beneath the clock tower shattered, and in the spiderweb-like crater, Gwen bled from her orifices. Lizard Parker's body had failed to cushion her fall.

"No…"

Watching Gwen's body twitch and spew blood, Lizard Parker howled at the sky, clutching his head in despair.

On the balcony of the clock tower, Xia Luo, who had arrived a moment too late, remained silent.

Well, that was something—everyone fought to save her, but she ended up dying even worse.

Forget it, restart!
