Chapter 703 U: Infinite Events (Twenty-Two)
Outside the window of the laboratory, the moonlight was sparse, but inside the laboratory was a mess. Otto stood among the debris on the ground, with two tentacles supporting the ground, lifting himself up, and the four limbs and tentacles stepped forward like legs. Until he came to Zhang Parker.
"Are you Spider-Man too?" Otto looked down at the four tentacles behind Zhang Parker. Compared to Doctor Octopus's tentacles, the tentacles behind Zhang Parker were more like arthropod legs, with sharper ends. Compared to tools, More like a weapon.
"I'm not Spider-Man." Zhang Parker admitted his identity for the first time. He said, "I am you in your parallel universe."
Otto snorted and said nothing. He controlled the tentacle to turn around, fixed the tentacle on the ceiling, and began to clean up the debris in the room.
Zhang Parker seemed to be irritated and said angrily: "Don't you believe it? I did better than you. I replaced Spider-Man and became the only hero in that world."
"Really? Then you are quite powerful. Go back to your universe. What are you doing here? Do you still think I'm not busy enough?" Otto bent down to pick up the fragments of the experimental bench, with a look of pity on his face. .
All the building materials in this laboratory are made of the best materials. Unfortunately, the mechanical tentacles behind Otto are made of better materials. The luxurious combination of molten steel and vibranium gives the tool tentacles an unparalleled hardness. , even if it is lightly slapped on the experimental table, the experimental table will be shattered.
"Where did you take them?" Zhang Pak asked.
"Who do you mean?"
"Those Spider-Man's."
Otto shook his head and said: "They left with the agents. SHIELD wants to investigate the matter of traveling across the universe. If you chase their car now, you should be able to catch up."
As he spoke, he put on his glasses, picked up the document at hand, and began to read the contents. Although he was a little tired, after making a fuss and venting the anger in his heart, he seemed to be calm. few.
"Are you going to stay here like this?" Zhang Parker took two steps forward. He looked at Otto and asked, "Live a life of failure like yours and always be defeated by Spider-Man? Don't you want to defeat him?"
"Why should I defeat him?" Otto asked without looking back.
"He has destroyed everything you have! Even if he hasn't yet, he will sooner or later! That's the kind of person he is! His indecisiveness and cowardice will destroy the world!" The tentacles behind Zhang Parker trembled, and his There was a hint of anger in his tone.
Otto put down the document in his hand and paused for a moment. The mechanical tentacles on his limbs supported him and turned his body around. His lenses reflected the moonlight outside the window, making Zhang Parker unable to see his eyes clearly, but he was sure that this time At that time, Otto was not angry at his words.
"Are you jealous of him?" Otto asked.
"I said, I have defeated him, I have done better than him!" Zhang Park emphasized again: "I eliminated all the criminals at once. From now on, New York will always be safe."
Zhang Parker suddenly saw that after Otto took off his glasses again, his eyes felt a little familiar. Zhang Parker recalled that perhaps, at some point, he had looked at Spider-Man with such a look.
"You are not me." Under the moonlight, Otto looked at Zhang Parker and said firmly: "Otto Octavius will not spend several hours every day wandering around New York like Spider-Man. Because he knows it’s useless.”
Just as Zhang Parker was about to say something, Otto came closer, looked into his eyes and asked: "New York is safe, but what about the East Coast? What about the entire East? What about the West? America? The whole world?"
"You are not me, you are still Spider-Man." Otto emphasized again, he said: "Only those stupid boys in adolescence will think that as long as they defeat all criminals with their fists, the world can gain peace. "
"And Otto, that's me, I know that criminals in this world cannot be eliminated, because that's how humans are." Otto put on his glasses again, but when he had the light behind him, Zhang Parker could In his eyes, I saw a more mature thought.
"There will be so much evil in this world, and wars, bloodshed, and death will occur. Essentially, the reason is that resources are limited, and humans must compete for the few resources in this small area."
"This will lead to too many unnecessary fights. If there were unlimited resources to allow all human beings to live the best life, although it would not be possible to completely eliminate criminals, it would definitely be much better than it is now."
After Otto finished speaking, he came closer and his tentacles supported his body. He looked down at Zhang Pak and said:
"From the beginning to the end, I have been an energy scientist. The only way I can save the world is to obtain inexhaustible clean energy for mankind so that everyone will no longer fight for it. This is what I should do. Made.”
"And you, if you agree with defeating all criminals and saving the world, then you are not me, because I would never consider that approach."
After Otto finished speaking, he turned around to clean up the laboratory, while Zhang Parker stood there silently.
Since exchanging bodies with Peter Parker, he has been busy running around. He wants to open his own laboratory, make stronger equipment, and fight more criminals. He wants to invent surveillance equipment to monitor the whole city, and he must always beware of spiders. The hero's counterattack.
He had to crack all kinds of conspiracies and tricks. After traveling to the future, he was on the way to deal with the Inheritors. He led the Spider Army to attack head-on and was seriously injured. Zhang Parker asked himself that even if Peter Parker from his world came, he would not do better than him.

Did he do better than Peter Parker?
Maybe yes, he provided mechas for many people, eliminated criminals, and hit the Inheritors who were a threat to Spider-Man. That immature boy was not that strong at all.
But is he still Otto Octavius?
The days of being a researcher are very far away from him. The days of driving to and from get off work every day, facing boring experimental data, and being angry about the inaccurate operation of laboratory assistants are like the moonlight this night, which disappeared the moment the sun rose.
Also disappeared are those ambitions and aspirations that belonged only to Otto.
When he first lit the reactor fire when he was young, he had imagined that he would become a great scientist who changed the fate of mankind, and like all the great men in history, he would leave a strong and colorful mark on the road to human ultimate happiness.
But this idea did not last long, and he met Spider-Man, a destined opponent.
He began to abandon his ideas as an energy scientist, repaired tentacles, strengthened equipment, and even made a device that could exchange bodies with Peter Parker.
What a great invention, but when Zhang Parker stood here, he gradually recalled the joy he felt after he found out that he had successfully exchanged bodies with Spider-Man.
Is he happy for his new life?
Or is he happy for becoming his enemy, the fool he once disdained?
This new body gave him unlimited vitality, and then he used this vitality to do the same things as Spider-Man, upgrading equipment, fighting criminals, and taking a step further on this road.
Perhaps, this is indeed something to be proud of, but that middle-aged, ordinary and somewhat unlucky energy scientist has completely disappeared in his universe.
Does this world need Otto more or Spider-Man more?
When Zhang Parker thought about this question, he lowered his head and looked at the scattered materials on the floor of the laboratory.
He took two steps forward and picked up a piece of paper on the ground. There were some data written on it that he couldn't even fully understand, which seemed to be the conclusion of the survey of the sun.
"If you want to see it, the data room is next door." Otto's voice came from the side. Zhang Parker felt his arms trembling a little. He walked along the wall on one side of the room and walked towards the door.
After opening the door, there were several filing cabinets neatly placed on the wall. Zhang Parker walked forward anxiously, as if he was in a hurry to find an answer.
He began to look through the materials inside, took out all the documents, data, drawings, conclusions, including energy equipment that was about to be put into production and had already been put into production, all the things he could understand and couldn't understand.
Surrounded by numbers and graphics, the distant memories of scientists emerged again.
When Zhang Parker fully understood these things, he found that in this universe, the genius scientist Otto saved the world in his own way.
The stellar energy extraction device he designed has been in actual use for no more than three months, and the energy extracted has reached 30% of the total global coal-fired power generation. In the next three years, it is expected to replace most of the energy generated by coal-fired power generation on the earth, and it is clean, pollution-free and sustainable.
Zhang Parker put down the information in his hand, walked out of the information room, and then pushed open the door of the laboratory next door, where other Spider-Mans were doing experiments. There, Zhang Parker saw more project information.
The lizard serum project that can perfectly regenerate broken limbs without sequelae, the mechanical equipment project of the Mercury base, and the cryogenic chamber project that can freeze terminally ill people for future treatment...
Every document here represents a step towards human ultimate happiness.
A few minutes later, Otto looked at the list, and the figure with tentacles appeared outside the door again. Zhang Parker asked in a hoarse voice: "Lizard Man... I mean, Dr. Connors, where is he?"
"His laboratory is in Stark Building. If I'm not mistaken, he should still be doing experiments now. You can call that Tony Stark. He always gives a break to people named Peter Parker."
Otto's words dissipated in the moonlight, and the figure with tentacles on his back at the door had disappeared.
In the laboratory of Stark Building, Connors rubbed his wrists and put down the pen in his hand. After recording the last set of data, he was about to get off work. At this time, he turned and looked outside the door. Under the moonlight, there appeared a figure with four tentacles.
"Otto? Oh, you are not Otto, Peter?? You also had a mechanical tentacle operation?" Connors looked at Zhang Parker who appeared at the door with some surprise.
"I..." Zhang Parker pursed his lips. He looked at Connors, the once cruel and cold-blooded Dr. Lizard, who was calmer than he had imagined. For some reason, all the people in this universe seemed more focused, self-consistent, and balanced. There was a sense of relaxation from the inside out.
Connors looked at Zhang Parker, seeming to realize that he was not the Peter he knew, but in the end, his eyes fell on Zhang Parker's waist, and he asked: "Are you injured? And it seems to be very serious... …”
With that said, he turned around and went to the cabinet next to him to get two injections. He walked towards Zhang Parker and handed the injections to him, saying: "The mature version that has been tested can perfectly repair the wound with just one injection." , severed limbs can also be regenerated.”
Zhang Parker silently took the two injections, but after hesitating, he still said, "Can I take it away?"

"where are you going?"
Zhang Parker turned to look out the window at the extra bright moonlight, and slowly said two words in a nostalgic tone: "Go home."
"You said you want to go home?" Peter looked at Parker up and down and said, "You want to go back now??"
"That's right, you will send me back just as you sent me here." Zhang Parker said, looking at Peter.
"The problem is, I don't even know how I sent you here." Peter, who was looking at a thick pile of information in his hand, showed a bitter look.
"The secret of magic is that all your wishes come true." Zhang Parker repeated the words that Peter said before sending them here. He said: "If you can use magic, use magic to send me back."
"...I'll give it a try, but there's no guarantee of success." Peter said a little embarrassed. As he spoke, he put his hand on Zhang Parker's shoulder, tried to concentrate, and kept muttering: "I'm thinking about something." All your wishes come true..."
After a burst of light, Zhang Parker appeared in the silent space of the universe. He held the transmitter in his hand and used the spider sense to communicate with the spider totem and locate his own universe.
In an instant, he appeared in a familiar room. Outside the window were surveillance robots flying around, and police and security guards patrolling the streets, all wearing mechas designed by him.
Zhang Parker lowered his head, looked at the lizard serum in his hand, took a deep breath, and seemed to have made a decision that took quite a lot of courage.
In a corner that he had almost forgotten, the remains of Otto Octavius had been kept there. Zhang Parker came to the body, put the injection in his hand, and then started the exchange. Body equipment.
While the equipment was running, he heard the fragment of Peter Parker's soul in his body saying to him: "No! You can't do that! Your body is dying, you will die..."
"Silly boy."
As soon as he finished speaking, Doctor Octopus opened his eyes again.
Otto felt the tremendous pain coming from this dying body. It was broken, old, and painful, and it was far less useful than the young and healthy body.
But he smiled, clenched the lizard serum in his hand, and then stabbed it hard on his shoulder.
Then, on the skyline of New York City, four huge mechanical tentacles broke out of the ground.
A middle-aged man wearing a windbreaker and sunglasses stood in the sun again. He took a deep breath and turned to look at the busy traffic in downtown New York and the sun hanging high in the sky.
Spider-Man regained his body and jumped out of the hole in the ceiling. He stretched out his tentacles and said to Otto: "Doctor Octopus, don't get excited. I don't think you are a bad person. We can really talk!"
Otto looked at him and took a deep breath. A roar that seemed to vent his dissatisfaction to Spider-Man and himself broke through the clouds over the city and echoed over New York:
"Spider-Man!
You'd rather spend three hours a day flying around New York! They don’t even want to take the time to worry about the future of mankind!
