Chapter 1132 Father and Son (Fifty-Two)

After walking through the portal of the multiverse Spider Corps base, Peter found himself in another small space the next second. This was obviously also a space, but it was not as bright and spacious as the newly built Spider Corps base.

"Is this a space station?" Peter asked. He looked up and down at the surrounding environment and found that there was no sense of future technology at all. On the contrary, there were exposed pipelines everywhere, which even looked like technology had regressed.

"This is a small space station above the New York Sky Island, and it is also the only space station I have." Spider-Man 2099 explained, and he led Peter to the living room in the space station with familiarity.

There is a small window here, just in time to see the scene of the earth.

As soon as Peter walked over, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.

Outside the space station, what appeared was not the blue planet that Peter was familiar with, but a celestial wreckage that had already collapsed into countless fragments.

Although the earth is still spherical as a whole, to be more precise, it should be maintained in a radial shape, just like when fireworks explode, countless fragments are arranged in different orbits, and have long lost their original complete and round shape.

The edges of each fragment are inlaid with mechanical facilities, which seem to be mechanical equipment for maintaining gravity and orbits. It is not difficult to see that these equipment have multiple styles and should come from different companies.

Moreover, many fragments are also connected by mechanical equipment, but the mechanical device of the sky island is a real object, while the one used to connect the sky island is more like an energy chain.

The number of energy chains is so large that it is completely indistinguishable to the naked eye. Many of the abandoned parts have not been repaired. The endless energy chains are like terrible tentacles, constantly waving near the earth. The whole earth is like a piece of meat that has been cut into pieces but connected by iron wires. It is terrifying, ugly, and creepy.

And the many small spaceships flying between the fragments are like flies seeing this piece of rotten meat. There is no sense of order brought by technology. There is only a disgusting density.

Peter was so shocked by the scene that he stood there for a long time without saying a word.

Spider-Man 2099 stood beside him, also looking at his hometown through the small window. He said, "I'm sorry that I didn't go directly to your universe to find you, because I was really afraid of seeing the complete earth."

"My hometown has been like this since I was born, until one day, I saw what the earth should have been like in another universe in the multiverse. These greedy big companies destroyed our beautiful home planet..."

But to his surprise, young Peter did not immerse himself in negative emotions for too long. He turned to look at Spider-Man 2099 and asked, "You said this is your space station?"

"Yes, in this era, space stations are private property. As long as you have money, you can buy all kinds of luxury houses. Shareholders of big companies are all living... Living in such a space station, they have spacious rooms, beautiful greenhouses, fresh air, etc...."

"On the surface, apart from the slums, there are factories built by large companies. Everything produced in the factories is also for the rich people on the space station. This is why they plotted to blow up the earth."

Spider-Man 2099 led Peter all the way inside. He said: "In the first few decades before the earth was blown up, global production activities were in full swing. People believed that all the resources of the earth should be concentrated and then distributed equally.

"Of course, the rich conspirators did not want to do this, so they established large companies and began to monopolize historical culture and technology. Finally, they used their own technological means to directly blow up the earth."

"Only they have the ability to build a space station and live on it, while those civilians who are unable to do so are left on the ruined surface. If they want to survive, they can only rely on companies.

"So, the entire earth has become a huge resource extractor. These big companies control the switch, and resources are continuously delivered to company shareholders for enjoyment. The poor on the earth don't even have the means to resist. They can't even reach the high-altitude space station."

"However, people have not given up. Under the high-pressure rule of the company, a group of free men who want to reverse the current situation have emerged. I am one of them."

From Spider-Man 2099's words, Peter keenly discovered some key points, so he asked: "Why are free men born? Shouldn't all the civilians who are ruled unite to resist? "Resist?" Spider-Man 2099 shook his head and said, "You think it's too simple. Big companies have robots that can completely replace human labor. In other words, they are willing to give civilians a job, which is already kind... In other words, all the civilians who survive now are actually for the entertainment of the rich. They are their entertainment projects, not necessities for survival. " "Big companies will implant identity systems for civilians. The system will upload all their privacy to the company's database, and shareholders can select the civilians they want to use for fun in the database, and then send spacecraft to take them home. "

"My daughter died just like that..."

Peter felt his heart suddenly sink. He had guessed why. The chin that Spider-Man 2099 showed when he was drinking just now showed that he was actually very handsome. Then, his daughter might also be very beautiful.

What surprised Spider-Man 2099 was that Peter did not insult the company indignantly, but said something that made Spider-Man 2099's back cold.

"What does the space station rely on to fly in the universe?"

"Of course it is the power system of a large company, but you'd better not attack them. Even the most powerful hacker can't hack into this part of the system..."

Peter said nothing. His silence made Spider-Man 2099 unable to see through him, so he said half-jokingly: "I thought only Shadow Spider-Man would be so taciturn..."

After that, he pushed open a door. Behind the door was a small shuttle that looked like a fighter, but it didn't have such big wings. Instead, it worked on the space thrusters at the back.

Spider-Man 2099 opened the door and got in. Peter immediately sat in the co-pilot's seat. With the roar of the engine, a small plane flew towards one of the celestial fragments.

After landing, the scene here surprised Peter even more. The ground was not very broken, nor was it a wasteland. On the contrary, there was a city that looked quite high-tech and very prosperous.

"Before the earth was blown up, we already had quite high technology. In order to paralyze the civilians, the group of shareholders claimed that they had withdrawn from the city and given up their property."

"So, many people lived in the building in the city center, but all this was just a scam. People thought they got what they wanted, but the next second, the disaster came."

Spider-Man 2099 pressed a button, and the shuttle disappeared from the spot. He led Peter into an alley and said, "Ms. Miracle should be in the Nord Building. It is not the territory of the free people. There are all kinds of people, including company employees, mercenaries, and wanderers. We need to deceive the identity recognition system to get in. Then, we can find her. "

"Wait a minute." Peter called Spider-Man 2099, and then said, "It's not me who is looking for the female Loki, but another Loki. Now that we have a definite clue, I will call him over now. He is also the god of fraud, maybe he can help..."

Spider-Man 2099 sighed and said, "If I wasn't in a bad state, I wouldn't need help from others. We are all Spider-Man, don't think that you are the only one who can do scientific research."

Peter reached out and patted Spider-Man 2099's shoulder, asking him to sit down and rest for a while. Then he called Loki's communication and explained the current situation to him.

Soon, with an orange square portal appearing on the ground, Loki, holding Helen, appeared in front of the two Spider-Men.

At this time, she was still in the image of a woman, but after seeing Spider-Man 2099's shocked eyes, he turned back into a male Loki.

But soon, Spider-Man 2099's eyes fell on Helen's face. Before Loki could speak, Spider-Man 2099 looked at him again and asked, "Is this your daughter?"

Before Loki could answer, Helen started to shout. She raised her hand high and said, "Yes, this is my father, ah, sometimes my mother..."

Spider-Man 2099 was about to step forward, but he paused, as if he was afraid of scaring Helen. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't be afraid, little girl, it's just... you look a bit like my daughter."

Just as Loki was about to say something, Peter winked at him, so he took the initiative to change the subject.

"I heard that you have found clues about Sylvie. Where is she? I hope to find her quickly."

"She is in the Nord Building, but it is no longer a prosperous commercial center. You can think of it as a large bazaar, a paradise for brokers. If we want to get in, we must first crack the identity recognition system there..."

"That's easy." Loki snapped his fingers and said, "As long as I can see who can get in, I will naturally find a way to disguise us."

"Disguise won't work." Spider-Man 2099 shook his head and said, "The chip of the identity recognition system is implanted in the human body. It only imitates the appearance and cannot fool the security system."

"I didn't plan to just imitate the appearance. I didn't use illusion." Loki shook his head and said, "Let's go first. Soon, you will know..."

Spider-Man 2099 didn't seem to agree with Loki's doing this, but Peter stood on Loki's side. This was their mission, so Spider-Man 2099 led the two through the alley and came to an abandoned station.

The means of transportation here made Peter feel a little surprised, because it was somewhat similar to the shuttles in full swing on the earth in his universe.

"Are you surprised? Actually, it's nothing surprising. The Earth in my universe once went to the sea of ​​stars, but unfortunately..." Spider-Man 2099 shook his head and said, "In the end, all the achievements of human civilization belong to big companies and have nothing to do with ordinary people..."

The closer he got to the depths of the station, the darker it became. Peter saw traces of countless pedestrians passing by. Once upon a time, this place was like his hometown, civilized, prosperous, and full of vitality.

"Development, for whom is it developed?" Peter asked softly. He murmured in a low voice: "If not everyone can enjoy the fruits of civilization development, then what is the meaning of us doing all this?"

Spider-Man 2099 took the lead and walked into the darkness. In the darkness, he looked back at Peter, with the sadness and helplessness that Peter felt in his eyes.

"Big companies have taken away everything, including my children and the children of many people."

"If I were born in the early stages of civilization, I would have the same doubts as you."

"After all I have experienced, I can only tell you the answer in my heart - Spider-Man is always born for ordinary people."

"No matter how high or far others fly, I will always be consistent and defend the interests of ordinary people like me to the death."
