The Memoirs of Cultivating Immortals

Chapter 491 Reality
When Peter Parker woke up again, he found himself lying in an extremely spacious space. Looking around, there was darkness and gloom. There were only a few faint lights in the far distance, which together formed a beam of light.

He began to search his mind, trying to remember the last scene before he passed out.

"Am I entering the spiritual world?"

Peter said to himself uncertainly. Although he has undergone many body modification operations and injected countless genetic drugs, he was able to use spider silk to stop a derailed train and hang a broken ship, and now he can intercept an airliner. , blocking supersonic rockets,
However, no matter how frightening the physical strength is, it cannot change the fact that the mental strength is fragile.
For the first time, Peter regretted that he hadn't attended the anti-psychic invasion course hosted by Professor Charles in order to buy an engagement ring for Mary Jane.

Things have come to this, so I have to take a step and watch one,
Peter sighed inwardly, and walked towards the light.

Taking a closer look, he was surprised to find several figures under the beam of light, some of which he was quite familiar with.

A figure wearing an old SS leather jacket from World War II, with no skin on his face but only flesh and bones, is one of the leaders of Hydra, the Red Skull.

A middle-aged man who was as tall and strong as an iron tower, wearing a black and white skull T-shirt and a headgear with the same style on his head, was the right arm of Hydra Red Skull, Crossbones.

A burly man wearing a white hood, yellow and black armor, a sinister mask, and a samurai sword on his back is a top-level mercenary who can imitate the skills of any extraordinary person, an imitation master.

Peter has heard the names of these three brothers countless times. Before the establishment of Academy City, he had the honor of cooperating with other superheroes and foiling their plot to subvert New York.

Peter is also very familiar with the others.

A young woman with long straight black hair and a sexy T-shirt is Jessica Jones, Peter's former high school classmate, who later gained supernatural powers in an accident and cameo as a private detective in the Hell's Kitchen area of ​​New York City .

Next to Jessica Jones is a tall black bald man who is Jessica's husband Luke Cage.

These two are Peter's friends, but after the establishment of Academy City and the expansion of Second New York, Jessica and his wife who don't like the excitement did not choose to join Academy City directly.

The contact with Peter gradually decreased, and at most, I sent blessings by email during the holidays.

Since Jessica and his wife are here, then
Peter looked to the side, and sure enough, in the shadows beside Luke Cage, he found a thin (relatively speaking) young white man with brown curly hair. His name was Danny Thomas Rand Kay, and he had received Eastern Classical martial arts education, awarded the title of "Iron Fist".

Many years ago, Iron Fist, Jessica and his wife (the two were just prostitutes at the time) and Peter all acted as vigilantes in New York City. Occasionally, there were some powerful enemies that could not be dealt with, and they would team up to overcome them together, and established a deep friendship. revolutionary friendship.

But now, decades have passed, and no one would have imagined that they would gather again in such a dark and gloomy spiritual world, with three other former enemies as companions.

The arrival of Peter also attracted the attention of everyone under the lights. Red Skull and the others looked even more gloomy, while Jessica and the others only had a flash of happy reunion at first, which was quickly replaced by bitterness.

"Peter, long time no see."

Jessica walked out of the light first, hugged Peter warmly, brought him back to the light, and greeted Iron Fist and Luke Cage.

Decades of old friends gather again, Peter has a thousand words to say in his heart, but he doesn't know how to speak.

Jessica seemed to have seen Peter's thoughts. If the little spider in the old man's state picked up the chatterbox attribute again, the group of people might not want to be quiet in the future. She hurriedly said, "Are you confused? Why? Are we here with these Hydra elements? Why didn’t we fight? Who caught us in? What’s their purpose?”

The corners of Peter's mouth twitched and he nodded.

Jessica sighed slowly, exchanged glances with her husband, then exchanged glances with the Red Skull on the opposite side, and then said: "Since the establishment of Automatic Second New York, Luke and I have planned to hide far away. place.

You also know that we were born free, and we don’t like being controlled by people above. In order to avoid the eyes and ears of Academy City, we went directly to the port city on the other side of the ocean, met with Danny, and asked him to help us create fake identities. Settled down in the city.

When the Planetary Defense Committee was established, we took advantage of the opportunity to live in the Harbor City Building.

In the past few decades, our little life was going well,

Who knew a few days ago, me, Luke, and Iron Fist all started having the same dream. "

"Dream?" Peter asked, frowning.

"That's right." Jessica nodded meaningfully, "In my dream, I saw that I didn't live in a skyscraper, but I was lying in a pyramid on the seabed with 70 billion other people.

The whole body was firmly bound and soaked in a glass jar filled with nutrient solution.An electronic fiber tube is inserted into the back of the head from the back of the neck, and various simulated scenes are projected in my mind. "

Peter's mind was not slow, and he replied subconsciously: "The Matrix? Brain in a tank?"

"That's right." Jessica nodded, and said in a deep voice: "I thought it was an unconscious nightmare at first, but it wasn't until I talked to Luke and Danny that the three of us did the same thing. Dream."

"." Peter only felt sour between his teeth, but he heard Jessica continue: "Since then, I have begun to doubt the authenticity of this world, although everything here works exactly the same as the outside world,
When the water is hot, it will boil.

People who are killed will die,
But my intuition tells me that something is not normal in this world! "

Peter frowned, trying to interrupt the other person's words. He has lived in this world for more than 50 years, and every important fragment and touching detail of his life is vivid. How could it be fake?
As if seeing Peter's confusion, Jessica said softly, "Peter, your pictorial memory is far beyond ordinary people, right?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"...When you look up every night, do you find that the positions of the stars are not moving?"

How can it be?

Peter was about to laugh out loud, denying Jessica's absurd possibility, but when he searched the memory bank, looking through the memories of watching the stars every time for more than fifty years, he suddenly found that all the stars were fixed in the sky, as if The fixed oil painting is average, without any changes.

What's more frightening is that Peter found that no one, whether he himself or everyone he came into contact with in his daily life, was confused by this weird phenomenon.

It's like... like everyone thinks that's normal!
Everyone's "common sense" has been falsified on a large scale!
How can it be!

Peter felt a cold current pass through his whole body, his tough and powerful body froze suddenly, and his palms clenched subconsciously, making creaking noises.
