Chapter 17: Gain the special abilities of other Spider-Men?
But just as he was about to continue running towards the entrance of the gym on the basement level, he discovered that his cousin was already waiting at the only exit on the basement level!
Peter was startled: "When?"
There was only one exit on the second basement level, so why didn't he notice when his cousin came out?
The answer, of course, is that Toby is faster and more familiar with his abilities than Peter.
Peter walked on the floor, while Toby walked on the ceiling.
As Spider-Man, climbing walls is naturally faster than running away!
After all, what spider actually walks on the ground? They all walk on the walls, okay?
Toby crossed his arms and looked at Peter with a half-smile on his face:
"run?"
"From childhood to adulthood, Ben and Mei have always asked me to catch you, kid. When have you ever managed to escape from me?"
"So just accept your fate. No matter how strong you become, your brother is still your brother. Obediently accept the special training from your brother!"
With that, Toby tossed two metal bracelets to Peter.
Peter caught it instinctively, somewhat puzzled: "What is this?"
Toby explained casually, "The web launcher, worn on the wrist, with the launch button at the bottom, is a tool used to assist your movement and combat."
Upon hearing this, Peter looked like he had just realized something: "It's the thing you used to clog the pipes in my room this morning, right? I was wondering how you did it, so that's what you used!"
Toby raised an eyebrow and wagged his finger at Peter: "No, that's something only spiderlings like you need. I don't need it."
Although he had created spider launchers, he himself never cared about such external technology.
Because the spider silk that his own body produces itself, for reasons unknown, is the most reliable!
The spider silk projectile might malfunction, but the spider silk he produces himself will never fail, as long as he firmly believes in himself!
After Peter put the two web-shooters on his wrists, he lowered his head and smiled slyly. Then, without warning, he raised his hand and shot a web towards Toby at the exit!
However, it was Peter's first time using the spider silk launcher, so his aim was obviously not very good.
He originally intended to shoot Toby in the foot, trap him with spider silk, and then escape.
But the spider silk he shot out deviated slightly from his expectations, flying towards Toby's head!
"A generous crab! Oh no!!" Knowing he was about to cause trouble, Peter immediately clutched his head in frustration.
Fortunately, the spider silk that was shot out did not hit Toby's head. Just before it hit Toby's face, Toby easily dodged it by tilting his head.
But the bad news is that after dodging the hood, Toby took out the hood that terrified Peter and put it on his head!
Poisonous spiders, here we come!
"Not only are they not begging for mercy, but they've actually challenged me? Interesting!"
With the hood on, Toby's voice sounded a bit deeper and carried a hint of excitement.
Since his debut, his opponents have mostly been ordinary people, which he has long since found boring.
Now Peter has finally become Spider-Man, and he finally has a punching bag that can take his beatings!
Toby crouched slightly, his arms outstretched to the sides, his fingers slightly curled, assuming a fighting stance!
Before Peter could even deny that he was being challenged, Toby had already charged towards him!
Although Peter had a premonition of danger through his spider-sense during their first battle, he was still caught off guard by Toby's incredible speed and was struck in the abdomen by Toby from below before he could even take a defensive stance!
The force of the blow sent Peter flying upwards, crashing into the ceiling several meters high!
Peter instinctively put his hands on his back to avoid further injury while in pain.
But then Peter discovered something amazing: when he braced himself against the ceiling with both hands, he didn't fall off the ceiling, but instead, he was stuck to it!
"Our power does not come from the awakening of any ancestral bloodline, but from spiders. We possess the super strength of spiders that far exceeds their own size, as well as their keen sense of danger. Similarly, our limbs also have the bristles that allow us to walk on any terrain with ease."
Toby stood up straight, raised his head slightly, and explained to Peter the source of his abilities.
"So that's how it is... Ouch!"
Peter nodded upon hearing this, and when he looked down, he saw a spider web stuck to his chest!
Then, with a scream from Tom the cat, Peter was pulled down by Toby and kicked away!
Peter lay on the ground, panting for several breaths before he caught his breath. Clutching his chest, he got up and complained to Toby:
"Brother, you really are my brother! It was just training, did you have to be so rough? You're definitely retaliating for my mistake just now!"
Upon hearing this, Toby held up three fingers and said calmly:
"First, if I really hit you hard, you wouldn't be able to get up after the first blow."
"Secondly, you are too easily distracted by external factors. If you don't correct this, it will become your fatal weakness in the future."
"Third, you're right, I am taking revenge, and I'm not done yet!"
"So, Spider-Man, are you ready to take this?"
Upon hearing this, Peter quickly raised his hand to give Toby a French salute: "Of course I wasn't prepared...uh...uh..."
But before Peter could finish speaking, a spider silk flew over and sealed his mouth shut as he was about to surrender!
Toby grinned from beneath his mask: "Just kidding, I don't care if you're ready or not!"
Toby's smile could mean the difference between life and death!
The basement gym at Parker's house was unusually lively today, with Peter screaming in agony for a full hour without stopping.
It wasn't until an hour later, when Peter was lying on the ground unable to get up, that Toby reluctantly ended Peter's special training.
Of course, Peter didn't get beaten up for nothing during that hour.
Under Tobey's intense fighting pace, Peter became familiar with all of Spider-Man's abilities and was able to use them in initial combat.
And Peter wasn't the only one who benefited this time.
Toby also gained something, and his gains were no less than Peter's acquisition of the spider ability!
Because he also gained spider abilities!
Some people might ask, "Isn't that obvious?"
Didn't you already have spider abilities?
NO NO NO, the spider abilities he already possesses are different from the spider abilities he just acquired!
This time, he didn't gain his own spider abilities, but rather Peter's spider abilities!
Before, wasn't he in that unknown premonition, after he completely defeated Peter, feeling that he could get something from Peter?
After he completely defeated Peter, his premonition came true!
And it wasn't just some of Peter's abilities, but all of Peter's spider powers!
Peter's newly acquired super strength, reflexes, spider sense, and climbing ability have all been enhanced to the same extent as his original abilities!
For example, his original strength was about twice that of Peter's, but after receiving Peter's power, his strength increased to three times that of Peter!
And it's not just in strength, but also in other abilities, except for the spider silk ability that Peter himself doesn't have!
So, is he able to gain the abilities of other Spider-Men by defeating them?
What kind of spider is this?
