Peter Parker, who had narrowly escaped death, didn't hesitate for a moment. He sped towards Osborn Tower, utilizing the Spider-Man path specifically laid out for him.
Finally, at the critical moment, he arrived at Osborn Tower and caught up with Doctor Lizard.
Seeing this, everyone watching couldn't help but be moved by Garfield Spider-Man's persistence, and they also understood what he meant by that kind of lonely bravery.
This was something their little guy could do, even when they themselves often couldn't.
Because they had the Avengers as a powerful backing, they could always call for help when they encountered problems.
For example, if this had happened in their world, little Peter Parker could immediately call for backup. A single shout would bring many Avengers superheroes to support him.
So, it was difficult for them to fall into a state of being completely alone.
But this Amazing Spider-Man was completely different. In that world, he had no one else to call, no one else to support him. In that world, he was the last hope. If he failed, that world was truly doomed.
They were, at that moment, seemingly witnessing the birth of a true superhero.
From being shot, to being surrounded by the police special forces, from being recognized by his father-in-law, to hobbling along to provide support.
He was in an undeniable desperate situation, but he didn't give up. He was still heading to Osborn Tower to stop Doctor Lizard's delusion of turning the entire city into a nation of Lizard-Men.
That single-handed, Don Quixote-esque spirit, going forward even against a thousand people, that atmosphere captivated everyone.
They had to admit, this was a hero, a lone-wolf superhero!
Even though they were also superheroes, with a much higher perspective than ordinary people, this kind of courage and never-give-up attitude was enough to move them. It was as if they were seeing Tony Stark carrying a nuclear bomb into a black hole for the first time.
It was truly deeply moving.
Compared to him, the little guy in their spacetime still seemed far behind.
A superhero isn't just someone with great power; they also need the will and courage to match.
Having only immense power could easily lead to becoming a supervillain.
Isn't that the difference between a supervillain and a superhero?
A superhero also needs the determination to stop evil and protect lives, no matter the cost.
And that's precisely what Peter Parker in their universe, for now and the foreseeable future, lacks.
But the Peter Parker from the Garfield Spider-Man version in the video is different. He's already begun to develop the qualities of a superhero: immense strength and an unyielding spirit, never giving up even when facing certain death.
That kind of "even if I'm the last one standing, I'll stop you" attitude is enough to earn everyone's respect.
Especially Captain America Rogers, who possesses a similar spirit, greatly admires such perseverance. Even if the whole world misunderstands him, even if the whole world opposes him, he'll still do what he believes is right.
Of course, the premise is that you can't be a supervillain.
If a supervillain thinks like that, the damage they cause becomes even more severe.
"This Osborn Tower, is it Osborn Industries?" Tony Stark recalled that there was indeed an Osborn Industries, but the problem was that, compared to Stark Industries, Osborn Industries was clearly a small fry.
It couldn't even be considered a top-tier group back then.
Of course, this was obviously a parallel universe, a different timeline, so it wasn't surprising that things were different.
"It should be Osborn Industries," Nick Fury nodded.
He silently made up his mind to increase surveillance of Osborn Industries. He even suspected that the transformation project carried out by Doctor Lizard might be supported by Osborn Industries, right?
The project mentioned in Lin Feng's diary concerned him greatly.
A project that turns people into lizard-men didn't seem like a good thing at all.
Based on their understanding of Osborn Industries, its main business was biochemical products, with some involvement in arms dealing. Overall, it could only be considered a second-rate company compared to Stark Industries.
A piece of news he hadn't paid much attention to previously suddenly flooded his mind: the Osborn family seemed to have a hereditary disease, leading to a shorter lifespan.
Over the years, Osborn Industries had continuously supported various biochemical laboratory experiments, possibly in search of a solution. He knew of some remarkable products.
And Doctor Lizard, of all places, was heading straight for Osborn Tower. Could he really have some connection to Osborn Industries?
He didn't know what Doctor Lizard was planning, but he knew that if Doctor Lizard succeeded, the consequences would likely be disastrous.
In the scene, Gwen took advantage of the chaos to run downstairs and met her father, George.
"Dad, I need to give this to Spider-Man," Gwen quickly explained to her father. "It can stop the Lizard."
But George was only concerned about his daughter's safety and didn't want to get involved.
Finally, George made his move, putting his daughter in the car and heading upstairs with the antidote for Doctor Lizard.
At this moment, Doctor Lizard had reached the top of Osborn Tower and was putting the serum into the device.
Once the serum mixed with the rain and sprayed over all of New York City, it would become a kingdom of Lizard-Men.
At a critical moment, Peter Parker arrived and engaged in a fierce battle with Doctor Lizard.
The two fought a brutal battle on the rooftop, a whirlwind of action.
Seeing Peter Parker injured and unable to fight at his full strength, Doctor Lizard gained the upper hand. He ripped off Peter Parker's mask and, upon seeing his good student, Peter Parker, a cold smile appeared on his face. "Poor Peter Parker, no mother, no father, no uncle, all alone!"
Just then, at the crucial moment, George arrived. He fired a shot that hit the liquid nitrogen tube, using it to freeze Doctor Lizard and then shattering his body.
But they didn't have much time left.
At this critical moment, George gave the antidote to Peter Parker, tasking him with saving the city.
However, he himself was impaled by Doctor Lizard's claws after the latter had regenerated his severed limb.
"No."
Gwen cried out from outside the screen, immediately losing control and roaring in anger when she saw her father die at Doctor Lizard's hands.
Although it was her father from a parallel universe, she regarded him in her heart almost as her own father.
When danger arose, he protected her, leaving her behind as he faced it alone.
She could barely control the aura radiating from her body, her eyes bloodshot.
That Doctor Lizard was Professor Connors. She almost didn't know how she would face this murderer of her father in the future.
Although she knew it was a matter of a parallel universe, Professor Connors in her own universe had done nothing and, moreover, had not killed her father, yet she would still have a grudge.
No matter which Spider-Woman it was, she was still just an ordinary girl.
At this moment, in the scene, it was the critical moment. At the crucial time, Peter Parker injected the antidote into the device and launched it into the sky.
The liquid turned into rain and fell. Doctor Lizard, after being touched by the antidote, transformed back into a human. At the critical moment, at the most crucial juncture, Professor Connors, having regained his sanity, saved Peter Parker.
But as the price of returning to human form, his right hand turned to ashes like smoke.
After Peter Parker was saved, he hurriedly found George, who had been pierced by claws.
"The Lizard?"
Seeing Peter Parker approach, Police Captain George immediately asked.
"It's okay now, we stopped him," Peter Parker quickly comforted.
When he tried to pick up George to carry him, he realized he couldn't move him; it would only make things worse. Even then, George was trying to reason with Peter Parker, saying, "You need… you need to leave before they get here, okay?"
"I'm not going anywhere!" Peter Parker shook his head.
"I was wrong about you, Peter," George said with difficulty. "This city needs you. Take this, you'll need it.
You'll make a lot of enemies, and people will get hurt. Sometimes, it'll be those closest to you. So I need you to promise me something, okay?"
He handed Peter Parker the Spider-Man mask, then said, "Don't involve Gwen. Promise me, promise me!"
George's last concern was his daughter. Only after he saw Peter Parker nod did he finally close his eyes.
Peter Parker, with tears streaming down his face and his eyes red, let out a helpless cry. After a moment, he staggered to his feet and looked out at the bustling city.
Because of his efforts, he had successfully protected this beautiful city, but the price was the death of his girlfriend's father.
The cost of this was undoubtedly heavy.
After the downpour, many of those who had become Lizard-Men finally reverted to humans.
Gwen, watching from outside the screen, was already in tears. Although she knew her own father was safe, this was just a parallel universe version of him, but she still couldn't help but sob.
She knew that if it were her own father, he would have done the same. They were essentially the same.
Thinking of this, she called her father, her voice choked with tears. "Dad, I miss you. I'm coming home for dinner tonight!"
George, on the other end of the phone, heard his daughter's cries but said nothing, simply replying, "Okay."
