Chapter 001: Tyrannosaurus Rex
获得主角能力的我只想过平凡生活 · 第001章 霸王龙
[Welcome to the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse world, my host.]
The moment Wang Bo landed, he heard the welcome from his cheat system.
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse? Another Marvel universe?
This should be Wang Bo's third time coming to this universe, and his second time in the Spider-Man world, only this world was somewhat different from the one he had experienced last time.
Because the protagonist of this world was no longer Peter Parker, but Miles Morales.
The so-called Ultimate Spider-Man.
Wang Bo remembered that the plot of this world seemed to be that Miles was bitten by a radioactive spider, gaining a series of superpowers such as venom strike, camouflage, wall-crawling, enhanced hearing, and spider-sense.
At the same time, the city's most notorious crime boss, Kingpin, had built a highly secret super-collider, which could open space-time portals to other universes.
The reason Kingpin built this super-collider was to bring back his deceased wife and son.
However, Spider-Man Peter Parker discovered this.
So Peter Parker tried to stop Kingpin. During their fight, Kingpin activated the super-collider, but due to Peter's interference, he failed to find his wife and son.
Enraged, Kingpin killed Spider-Man Peter Parker.
This shocked the entire world. A superhero had left them forever.
The whole world mourned.
But what Kingpin didn't know was that although the super-collider didn't find his wife and son, it pulled different versions of Spider-Man from other universes into this world.
These Spider-Men included a middle-aged Peter Parker from a parallel world, Spider-Woman Gwen, Spider-Man Noir, Spider-Ham, and Peni Parker.
To deal with this disaster, the Spider-Men united to fight against Kingpin.
With the help of these new and old characters, Miles, who had taken over the position of Peter Parker in this world, slowly learned, gradually accepted challenges, and understood the responsibility of being a superhero.
In the end, he and his companions defeated Kingpin and his super-criminals.
After sorting through the plot of this world, Wang Bo asked, "What happened in this world? Why do you think it's so dangerous?"
[This world is indeed very dangerous. I don't want to scare you, but I have lost two hosts in this world, although neither of them was as strong as you.]
Wang Bo's heart skipped a beat. Lost two hosts? It seemed this world was indeed very dangerous.
"So, what exactly happened in this world?"
[You should know about the super-collider, right?]
"Of course."
[When Kingpin activated the super-collider, it tore open portals to other universes, but unfortunately, at that very moment, this universe was affected by the fluctuations from the collision of the multiverse.]
Wang Bo: ...
That was just too unlucky. Wang Bo could hardly imagine what the combination of the two would cause.
[The consequences were catastrophic. Because of this incident, this world became a shuttle, with all sorts of strange things frequently appearing in this world, leading to a mess.]
Upon hearing this, Wang Bo couldn't help asking, "What exactly do you mean by 'all sorts of strange things'?"
“Trust me, you’ll see it soon enough. Rather than me telling you with my mouth, it’s better for you to witness it with your own eyes.”
Wang Bo: “...Fine, I’ll trust you for now. I’ll witness it with my own eyes.”
“Great, then I’ll lie low for a while. If anything comes up, you can contact me anytime. And be careful, my host.”
Wang Bo rolled his eyes and said, “Alright, you may take your leave.”
“...”
After the cheat device went into hiding, Wang Bo looked around the city. It didn’t seem much different from New York in other worlds. He had no idea what the cheat device meant by all that messy stuff.
But before that, he needed to find a place to stay.
Wang Bo didn’t want to sleep on the streets. Besides, this wasn’t his first time in New York. He had been to New York in several other worlds, so he was very familiar with it.
This time, Wang Bo planned to buy a luxury apartment in Manhattan again.
Because the services and environment there were the best.
So Wang Bo first went to an auction house, exchanged gems for a large amount of cash, then took the cash to a real estate company and bought a move-in-ready house in Manhattan.
After a series of operations, time had passed from morning to afternoon.
New York City was still peaceful. Wang Bo didn’t even see a single crime on the streets.
This surprised Wang Bo quite a bit. In the Marvel world, although New York City wasn’t as rough as Gotham, it was still a city with a high crime rate.
Three hundred and sixty-five days a year, incidents often occurred.
Especially in places like Hell’s Kitchen, robberies and murders happened almost every day.
But today, all the criminals seemed to be holed up at home, collectively not going out.
Just as Wang Bo was marveling at this, he suddenly felt a ripple in space.
He couldn’t help but look over and saw, about seven or eight blocks away, a giant claw reaching out from the void, easily crushing a car.
Then, the owner of the claw stepped out of the void step by step.
A Tyrannosaurus rex from the ancient era appeared without warning on the bustling streets of New York.
Roar!
Then it let out a roar, announcing its arrival.
In an instant, the originally orderly street fell into chaos. People cried out and scrambled to flee in all directions.
On the other hand, the T-rex, having just arrived in this world, looked around at the tall buildings and steel jungle with wonder.
Its ordinary, pitifully small brain couldn’t comprehend what was happening around it, but the little people running everywhere made it understand that these creatures were afraid of it.
In the ancient era, it was the apex predator at the top of the food chain.
Maybe it should try the taste of these running little creatures; it might open a new world.
So the T-rex unhesitatingly lowered its head and opened its mouth to bite a car, because it spotted a little person inside that box and wanted to taste that creature.
Swoosh!
But before the T-rex could bite the box, a beam of light descending from the sky pierced its brain. The T-rex didn’t even have time to let out a scream before it died on the spot.
