Chapter 137 - Defeating Electro (Extra Update)

"Scorpion!"

Peter followed the dark green mechanical tail and quickly spotted the attacker, recognizing him from his appearance.

"Oh, I didn't expect the famous Spider-Man to know a nobody like me?" Scorpion, standing on the opposite building, slowly retracted his mechanical scorpion tail and sneered. "But, I prefer you call me Scorpion King!"

Whoosh—

The mechanical scorpion tail stabbed towards Peter again.

"Scorpion King?" Peter stood still on the wall, his position being in the blind spot of Electro's previous attack.

Based on Electro's adjustment of angle, target acquisition, and the full process of attacking him, Peter had at least 1.5 seconds to deal with Scorpion.

Thwack!

Peter reached out and grabbed the Scorpion's mechanical scorpion tail, yanking hard and pulling him closer.

"Scorpion? I've taken apart something much tougher. Compared to that, you're just a little eight-ridged scorpion!"

With that, Peter swung his fist and slammed the Scorpion into the ground.

Then, he quickly left the scene.

As expected, the moment he left, a bolt of electricity arrived.

"Dillon!" The Scorpion was just about to get up when he saw a thick bolt of electricity heading his way and immediately let out a terrified cry.

Boom!

The next instant, he was completely engulfed by the electricity, his fate unknown.

Even if he was a serum-enhanced individual, under such a strong electrical attack, the best he could hope for was serious injury.

Peter didn't care about the enemy's safety and continued to focus on what he was doing.

After circling the area a few times, he inserted conductive metal rods into the nearby buildings, cleverly connecting them with his webbing.

If someone who understood circuits were here, they would see that it looked like a giant circuit diagram!

During this time, Peter carefully counted and found that there were thirteen Lizard-Men, one Rhino, and the still-alive-or-dead Green Goblin Harry and Scorpion.

Plus Electro… this was like an enhanced version of the "Sinister Six," wasn't it?

Even the Sinister Six from Earth-92131 didn't have such a luxurious lineup!

Given this, Peter started actively searching for these enemies.

He first found a Lizard-Man. This Lizard-Man was relatively thin, probably a skinny person before being injected with the Lizard serum.

Peter easily subdued him, wrapped him in webbing, and threw him far away, hanging him on a building.

Then came the second, the third, the fourth…

Before long, all thirteen Lizard-Men, including Captain Stacy, were captured by Peter, wrapped in spider cocoons, and thrown far away.

These Lizard-Man spider cocoons hung in a row, like a giant spider's nest preparing a reserve of food.

"Spider-Man! You damn bug! Jumping around, where do you think you're going!" Electro was furious.

He had been chasing Peter for so long, but he could only follow behind him, eating dust.

This made him, who thought he was invincible after gaining his powers, feel very frustrated.

But he didn't think it was because his abilities were lacking, but rather blamed it all on Spider-Man. He felt that it was because Spider-Man was too cowardly to fight him, which made him so frustrated.

However, just then, he suddenly discovered that the slippery spider had stopped!

Peter stood on the edge of a tall rooftop, holding a pair of things that looked like short sticks, staring directly at Electro: "I'm right here, Max."

"Spider-Man!"

Electro roared, his lower body turning into a mass of ionized particles, his upper body instantly bursting with dazzling blue light, and he charged towards Peter at high speed.

Peter calmly watched Electro.

His eyes seemed to have a ruler in them, precisely calculating the distance between Electro and him, Electro's current speed, the intensity of the electricity he was about to release, and so on.

Whoosh!

Peter's figure suddenly moved sideways several meters, then quickly returned.

At this moment, Electro happened to pass by where he had been.

Peter's hands, holding conductive metal rods, fiercely pierced through the high-voltage battle suit Electro was wearing, stabbing into his body.

However, Electro could ionize his body, so this physical piercing obviously couldn't cause him any substantive harm.

Electro stopped in place, lowered his head to look at Peter's actions, and then looked up at Peter, a smug smile playing on his lips.

"Bug, I won't be hurt by such an attack!"

"Really?" Peter's voice sounded full of meaning.

The next moment, he let go, twisting in the air and kicking Electro in the chest, sending him soaring upwards.

Meanwhile, he himself plummeted towards the ground.

Go!

He flung the web from his hands towards the conductive metal rods on the wall.

Sizzle—

Bright blue electricity erupted, coursing along the web and into the conductive metal rods, then quickly into the circuit Peter had built.

Electro was discharging!

But he wasn't panicked.

Because he had an endless supply!

But just then, Peter dashed into the building below, found a switch, and slammed it down!

Boom!

That's the main circuit breaker of the power plant!

As the main breaker was shut off, the current that had been continuously flowing into Electro's body momentarily stopped.

If it had only been shut off for a short time, Electro's combat power wouldn't have been affected at all, thanks to the electrical charge he had absorbed and stored beforehand.

He could even remotely control the breaker to turn it back on.

But at this moment, because he was connected to an additional line, and because this line was continuously draining his current and sending it to the ground…

Electro visibly weakened.

Whoosh—

Peter shot out two strands of webbing, bringing Electro, who hadn't yet reacted to the change, down from the sky. First, a kick, then a chop to the hand, and he was knocked unconscious and thrown to the ground.

Electro, defeated!

Only Rhino remained on the scene, but Rhino was just an ordinary person hiding in armor. He didn't last long against Peter, losing his ability to fight when Peter figured out and disabled the armor's power source.

With that, the battle that had affected all of New York seemed to be coming to an end.

But Peter knew it wouldn't be over so easily.

He was a little puzzled. Why hadn't Doctor Lizard shown up?

Judging by everything that had happened in this battle, Doctor Lizard was definitely involved!

But if Doctor Lizard really didn't show up, he wouldn't have any other options for the time being and would just have to look for him later as Spider-Man.

Peter went to the place where Green Goblin Harry had been defeated earlier.

It seemed like a long time, but the entire battle hadn't actually lasted more than thirty minutes.

Green Goblin Harry was still lying on the ground, just as he had been when he was defeated.

Because Peter had deliberately drawn the battlefield away, he hadn't been harmed by the later wave of electricity grounding.
