Chapter 283 At stake

[Spider-Man has already reached the outside of the Washington Monument. He throws his backpack aside, sticks it to a tree with spider silk, and continues to rush toward the monument.]

[In the elevator, the tour guide is introducing, "The Washington Monument is 555 feet and 5 and one-eighth inches high!"]

[“Observe how marble and granite are cut!” the tour guide continued to instruct them to observe. ]

[Ned, who was standing at the back, was completely unaware that the purple light emitted by the Chitauri energy core in his backpack was becoming increasingly stronger, and even began to emit white smoke.]

[The next second, dozens of energy rays shot out from it, piercing straight up through the elevator ceiling. The powerful energy rays shattered the glass on the top instantly.]

[The tourists were shocked, glass was scattered all over the ground, and the top stone of the monument was directly penetrated, and a large amount of broken stone powder fell from the top.]

[The tourists below panicked and looked up at the top.]

[Spider-Man ran over and saw this scene, and said anxiously: "NONONO! Karen, what happened there?"]

[Karen answered: "The Chitauri energy core has exploded, causing serious structural damage to the elevator!" At the same time, the elevator's condition was displayed. ]

【“Oh! NO!” Because he was too anxious, he didn’t notice MJ behind him. At this time, she also noticed something unusual, closed the book and looked up. 】

[“My friends are still up there!” she shouted, pointing to the top.]

[Hearing her words, Spider-Man was surprised at first, then comforted her: "What? Don't worry, ma'am, everything will be fine!"]

[“Make way, make way.” Then he quickly pushed through the crowd and ran over. When he got closer, he realized that the monument was so tall.]

【"Oh! My God, why is it so high!" But no matter how high it is, he has to climb. The little spider jumped onto the monument and began to climb up with all his strength. 】

[In the elevator, Ned threw his backpack to the ground in panic. Everyone didn't know that the explosion was caused by him and was focusing on the ceiling.]

【“Oh my god! Look at the ceiling!” A curved circular tangent line appeared on the ceiling. 】

[The tour guide immediately began to persuade everyone, "Please stay calm!"]

[But the students were all terrified, and Murphy said dejectedly: "Oh! We are going to die here!"]

[“We’re fucking screwed!”]

[Spider-Man crawls desperately, and Calenton reports: "There are about ten minutes left before the elevator completely loses control!"]

[The tour guide comforted: "Okay! I know everyone is scared, but our security system is working! We are safe here!"]

【But she didn't know that as soon as she finished speaking, Karen outside reported: "The security system has been completely paralyzed! The lives of the people trapped in the elevator are under urgent threat!"】

[Spider-Man becomes more and more anxious, "I'm going as fast as I can now!"]

"I really have to say this, Ned is really lucky. It would be fine if the luminous object didn't hurt anyone else, but it didn't even hurt him! It's outrageous!"

"Ah! Karen denies everything this lady says. It's so miserable!"

"Indeed, but what else can they do when something like this happens, except trusting the security system? They may be able to stay inside, but who can guarantee that the elevator won't have problems again?"

"If you ask me, it's their inadequate security measures that should be blamed. They couldn't even detect that Ned was carrying dangerous items in his backpack!"

Many people were talking about it, and many people blamed the security personnel of the monument for the incident. Ned did not know the danger of the energy core.

As a security guard, he was too careless to even detect that thing!

The security supervisor was overwhelmed after seeing Ned pass the security check. Based on past experience, he could guess that the inspection would have to be strengthened next!

At this time, tourists who were visiting various places also expressed dissatisfaction, because the people in front of them had passed smoothly, but when it was their turn, the security check intensity suddenly increased by several levels and the speed was much slower.

Many people seemed very annoyed and some even quarreled with the staff, but they were eventually taken away.

Tony and the others were thankful that the thing didn't blow everyone in the elevator into pieces, otherwise Spider-Man would have collapsed.

[Inside the monument, several security guards struggled to open the elevator door, and the tour guide also opened the cover on the ceiling and stuck his head out to look around.]

[They began to evacuate the students in the elevator, but they didn't know that this action caused the situation in the elevator to deteriorate sharply! ]

[“You now have 125 seconds to prevent a major accident!” Karen’s sudden announcement stunned Spider-Man.]

【"Watt? Why?" Spider-Man didn't understand why there was suddenly only so little time left! 】

[Karen's mask shows the staff's actions, "Unexpected actions caused the elevator to be damaged more severely!" The condition of the brake wheel was also marked.]

[Spider-Man looked up and asked, "How can I get in?"]

[“Activating the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft!” Karen immediately gave a plan. ]

[Looking at the little spider being activated from his chest, Spider-Man couldn't help but exclaim, "Whoa! Has this always been there? So cool!"]

[Karen controlled the drone to circle around the top of the Washington Monument, "Looking for the best entry point!"]

[Then he found it and reported it to Spider-Man, "Head to the southwest window!"]

[Spider-Man immediately shouted, "Karen, I'm going there!" Then he jumped up, turned a corner, and continued to climb up.]

[The crowd below kept watching Spider-Man's movements, watching him climb higher and higher.]

[On the other side, the staff continued to evacuate the students. Murphy stood on the edge and looked down. He saw a lot of broken glass all over the elevator shaft. It fell from above.]

[Spider-Man finally climbed to the top after much difficulty. He turned over and looked at the tiny crowd below. He took two deep breaths before trying to stand up slowly.]

【“Okay! Oh my god!” He took a breath and stood up, but when he looked down at his feet, his fear of heights suddenly kicked in, causing him to cling to the stone wall again, gasping for breath. 】

【"What's wrong? You've already reached the southwest window! What are you hesitating about?" Karen didn't understand Spider-Man's behavior. 】

["It's okay, I just never climbed so high before!" Spider-Man explained. ]

[Karlen warned, "You haven't reinstalled your parachute yet, so falling from this height is very likely to kill you!"]
