Chapter 7: Eat Kryptonite And Continue To Grow
It was precisely this operation that allowed Peter to successfully awaken all the basic abilities of the Super Overlord bloodline, and his combat power also soared significantly.
Originally, Peter planned to eat Kryptonite in the small town until he became invincible before returning.
However, what he didn't expect was that switching to the Super Overlord bloodline and consuming Kryptonite would also push his body to a temporary capacity limit.
Only when Peter's body adapted to the capacity limit and broke through this bottleneck, increasing his body's energy capacity, could the combat power of the Super Overlord bloodline continue to improve.
This point is quite similar to the Superman bloodline.
Recalling the taste of Kryptonite... Peter licked his lips, feeling a bit speechless.
The taste of green Kryptonite is like eating glass shards, and it has an indescribable strange flavor.
Fortunately, the bloodline of the Super Overlord has absorbed and digested all the green Kryptonite that was consumed.
Now the combat power of the Super Overlord bloodline is on the same level as the Superman bloodline.
Peter threw the fist-sized Kryptonite in his hand into the subspace and turned to walk into the bathroom.
There was a large mirror installed in the bathroom, and Peter looked at himself in the mirror, carefully observing the changes in his body.
Originally, Peter's body was very weak, and coupled with wearing glasses, he looked a bit naive and honest.
But now, it's different.
After obtaining the bloodline of Superman and the Super Overlord, Peter's physical fitness has greatly improved.
His originally thin and weak body has transformed into a healthy physique with strong and solid muscles.
Definitely, the most important change for Peter is in his eyes.
Peter used to be nearsighted, but the Superman bloodline not only cured his nearsightedness but also endowed him with incredibly powerful visual abilities.
"With my handsome appearance and now a strong body, I can be considered a sunny and handsome young man, right?"
"This is extraordinary!"
Peter gave himself a compliment on his appearance.
"Just that height is not quite there." Peter is currently only 1.86 meters tall.
As Superman, the height should be at least 1.93 meters, right?
With this idea in mind, Peter switched back and forth between the Superb and Superman bloodlines twice, but there was no change in his appearance.
However, there was a noticeable change in temperament. Absorbing the Superman bloodline made Peter look approachable and sunny.
On the other hand, the Superb bloodline was inherently sinister. When switching to the Superb bloodline, Peter's temperament became somewhat gloomy and cold.
"The Superb bloodline is indeed suitable for doing some dark things."
"I wonder what Gwen is doing now?" Peter supported himself on the washbasin with both hands, his gaze shifting.
With his X-ray-like perspective ability, Peter's gaze easily penetrated through the walls.
However, Gwen's bedroom was empty, with her previously worn high school uniform scattered on the bed.
"Did she go out swinging cobwebs?"
Just as Peter was thinking about this, his bedroom door was suddenly knocked.
"Peter."
"Uncle Ben?"
Peter quickly walked out of the bathroom and opened the bedroom door.
"Aunt May made a sumptuous meal tonight and is planning to invite George and Gwen to dine together."
"You know, it's been a long time since we had a meal with George and Gwen."
"Now I'm entrusting this task to you. You wouldn't refuse, right?" Uncle Ben patted Peter's shoulder meaningfully, while the corner of his eye quietly moved to the computer screen in Peter's room.
Peter's computer wallpaper was filled with photos of Gwen Stacy, with her golden shoulder-length hair.
As someone who has been through it, I naturally understand what Peter's behavior means.
Gwen is beautiful and has good academic performance. Originally, she also had a love for music, although she was a bit decadent in the past. But after all, she is someone I have watched grow up.
Both Ben and George are happy that Peter and Gwen are together.
Who wouldn't be happy when the relationship between the two families is so good?
"What reason do I have to refuse, Uncle Ben?" Peter responded decisively.
"Then I'll leave it to you." Ben smiled and was about to turn around when he suddenly said, "Have you been exercising lately? Peter, you've become much stronger."
"Yes." Peter was stunned, not expecting Uncle Ben to notice the change in his body.
"Well, young people should exercise to protect the people around them, right?"
Watching Uncle Ben's figure disappear into the distance, Peter slowly turned his head, recalling the meaningful words Uncle Ben had said.
Seeing the computer screen full of Gwen's photos, Peter's expression became inexplicably stiff.
...
Gwen Stacy, from the Spider-Verse, lost her mother at a young age.
In this world, Gwen was raised by her father alone. Before gaining spider abilities, Gwen's life was quite miserable and decadent.
The only solace for Gwen's soul... was that she still had a companion she grew up with, Peter Parker.
Wearing the Spider battlesuit, Gwen was squatting on top of a tall skyscraper, overlooking the bustling city of New York.
Looking at the busy city, Gwen's mind was filled with thoughts.
Since gaining spider abilities during the summer vacation, Gwen had never thought of becoming a superhero.
Mainly because this world doesn't lack superheroes at all.
Just the superheroes Gwen knows include the heroic and handsome Captain America from S.H.I.E.L.D, and...
Gwen looked down at her wrist, where the cobwebs launcher and her Spider battlesuit were. She couldn't help but recall that night.
Janet Van Dyne, known as the superhero Wasp to the general public, had encountered Gwen one night before her retirement.
Meeting Wasp allowed Gwen to obtain a battle suit and cobwebs launcher.
The clever Gwen modified the battle suit into the current Spider battlesuit and further optimized the cobwebs launcher.
Initially, Gwen didn't intend to become a superhero.
Like most ordinary people, Gwen, who unexpectedly gained super abilities, just wanted to attract public attention.
But it was precisely because she frequently appeared in front of the public that the citizens of New York gave her the title of "Spider-Woman."
Later, Gwen's father saw a report about Spider-Woman on TV and believed that Spider-Woman could help more people.
This prompted Gwen to undergo a transformation.
Definitely, it was Peter's words of admiration during the day that motivated Gwen to become an excellent superhero.
Gwen had a clear understanding of herself. She was just someone who wanted to attract everyone's attention... but she never expected to become the hero admired by Peter.
In order to establish a better image as a superhero and make Peter like her more, Gwen made up her mind to awaken and work harder to do what a superhero should do!
Squatting on the top of a skyscraper, Gwen couldn't help but feel a little elated when she thought of Peter's admiring gaze.
"Peter, watch closely. The Spider-Woman you love will officially become a superhero starting tonight!"
"Tonight will definitely be the true first battle of Spider-Woman!"
"This is a moment worth commemorating. Damn, I really hope J. Jonah Jameson's report tomorrow will be positive."
