#811 - Spider Silk

This was a very shocking scene. Peter estimated that as long as you looked up on Earth, you could see countless threads made of Lantern rings.

"These... are all Green Lantern rings?" Peter was so shocked that he could barely speak.

"I think so." Cindy let go, and without support, Peter immediately fell to the ground. He then realized that Cindy had been holding him up all this time.

"When..." Peter struggled to stand up, murmuring to himself while looking up at the sky filled with green light.

"I don't know, I saw this scene when I woke up." Cindy stood aside with her arms crossed. "I feel that this energy is very similar to what you used to hit me before, so I called you up."

"It's not just similar, it's exactly the same." Peter raised his right hand, and an emerald green ring was quietly hanging on his middle finger.

However, compared to the dazzling green light in the sky, the ring on his hand seemed much dimmer, like a light bulb without power.

This was not surprising. He had used up all the energy of the Lantern ring to save his sister. According to the microcomputer's introduction, the easiest way to restore the Lantern ring's energy was to find a power battery and charge the ring.

So the question is, where is the power battery?

It belonged to the eleventh of the world's top ten unsolved mysteries. Peter didn't have time to read the complete manual before he was forced to go to the battlefield and love-hate with his sister.

As a result, Peter still doesn't know what another way to charge the Lantern ring is, and can only stare blankly at a powerless Lantern ring.

This feeling is like holding a mobile phone without electricity, and his heart is full of emptiness.

"What's wrong?" Cindy cast a doubtful look. "Aren't you going together?"

"I want to." Peter showed a wry smile, and then showed Cindy his right hand with the ring, the dim Green Lantern ring answered all the doubts.

"Looks like you're out of power?"

"That's right, you can understand it that way."

Peter nodded in agreement. Without the help of the Lantern ring, he was just an ordinary person, powerless and unable to participate in the next battle.

"That's good, then I can stay by your side."

Peter pretended to be relieved, and just wanted to walk to his sister's side, but the latter took the lead in reaching out and flicking his forehead.

"Ouch!" Peter covered his red forehead, looking at his sister in disbelief.

"What's wrong? Why did you hit me?"

"Just to wake you up." Cindy frowned. "Aren't you a self-proclaimed genius? Why are you helpless at this time?"

"Please, Cindy!" Peter spread his hands. "This is a technology I have never been exposed to. I don't even know what the material that makes up the ring is, let alone disassemble it and study it."

"Didn't you keep babbling about willpower or something before? Why don't you use willpower to think of a way at this time?"

Peter seemed to hear something unbelievable. He stared at his sister with wide eyes, as if asking if she should listen to what she was saying.

Obviously, the two siblings were not on the same channel. Peter was talking about rational things, and Cindy was talking about emotional things.

"Didn't you say when you were beating me that the Green Lantern is a manifestation of willpower, and the Green Lantern uses willpower as energy? Of course, the words may not be said that way, but the meaning is definitely similar."

Cindy grabbed Peter's tie and said in a tone of hating that iron cannot become steel.

"What's wrong? You had so much willpower when you were beating your own sister, but now it's your turn to beat others and you're mute? You're a coward."

"I did that to save you!"

Peter's temper was good, but it was impossible not to be angry at this time. Being treated kindly as a donkey's liver and lungs is indeed one of the most annoying things.

"Then take out that momentum again and use it to save more people!"

Cindy used the Great God Roar, using a louder voice to push Peter back. This sound did stun Peter, causing him to be in a daze for a few seconds.

"In this world, there is more than just me who needs to be saved now." Cindy's eyes were red, and with the scars on her face, Peter couldn't say a word.

"You should be able to see how bad this world is now. It is possible that only a little bit of power will be lost, and not only you and I will join the battle."

"You? What can you do now?" Peter asked subconsciously.

"I can do more than you." Cindy tore open her sleeves, revealing the spider-web shooters on her wrists.

"This was taken off when that hammer controlled me to kill the me in the parallel universe, and now it can be used."

As Cindy spoke, she shot out several spider webs to repair the tattered clothes on her body, and also used spider webs to weave a mask for herself, almost only revealing a pair of eyes.

"When I was trapped, and when I was controlled, even just now, I was thinking about whether I should continue to be this hero. Finally, I figured it out, I still have to do it."

Cindy's eyes were full of determination, and she said, "If I shrink back because of this little thing, wouldn't that prove that I really lost to that woman? Even someone like me will be persecuted, so what about those who are weaker than me? Aren't they more dangerous?"

The latest novel is first published at Six/Nine/Book/Bar!

"So, I should stand up even more, for myself and for others."

Peter was so shocked that he could hardly speak. He didn't know when the little girl who used to only make him angry had grown to the point where he had to learn from her.

Peter thought he was not as good as his sister. When he was chosen by the Green Lantern ring, he only thought about his family, and didn't think as much as his sister at all.

"With great power comes great responsibility."

Cindy tugged at the mask. Although the voice was muffled, Peter still felt that these words were deafening.

"Is this a sentence Uncle Ben said?" Peter asked.

"Maybe, I don't remember, anyway, I just said it with feeling."

Cindy scratched her head, then turned and walked towards the sea of fire.

"What are you going to do?" Peter wanted to stop Cindy, but found that his strength was no match for Cindy now.

"To do what I should do." Cindy shot out a spider web and pulled herself onto a vertical steel bar.

"I've thought about it, I'm just a half-baked now, and I'm not worthy of the title of Spider-Woman. In the future, I'll still call myself..."

Cindy looked at her outfit and said, "Spider-Silk, yes, I'll call myself Spider-Silk in the future, hurry up and follow me, Green Lantern."

After speaking, Spider-Silk shot out a spider web and swung away without looking back.

Leaving Peter alone, watching his sister who had figured out the way before him, Peter kept chewing on a sentence in his heart.

"With great power comes great responsibility."
