I Became Spider-Man's Cousin in Anime Crossover

Chapter 122 Spider-Man's "Biofield"?

Putting that aside for now, Valmont and Kingpin, after suffering such heavy losses and provoking such a powerful enemy as Spider-Man, will they even be able to sleep peacefully tonight...

After finishing his work and returning to District 13, Riley, as usual, began testing his newly acquired abilities.

The most important aspect is speed.

Initially, when Riley was improving his agility, he rarely used his high-speed movement ability at full power, not only for the reasons mentioned earlier, but also because he was worried about whether his body and the surrounding environment could withstand such speed.

After all, Riley, who uses Spider-Man as his primary source of superpowers rather than being a speedster, doesn't have the same superpower-level force field protection as DC's Flash.

Therefore, according to normal scientific theory...

As Riley's speed increases, so does the damage he causes to the environment.

For example...

When Riley sprints at supersonic speeds and breaks the sound barrier, a cone-shaped overpressure shockwave will be generated behind him! Its power is enough to destroy objects in its path! Conservatively estimated, the coverage area is at least hundreds of meters!

That's not even the scariest part...

Don't forget, Riley is different from those supersonic fighter jets; he runs on the ground, in a human-like manner.

Therefore, considering the difference in their motion patterns, it's reasonable to assume Riley's speed is 340 meters per second, or Mach 1. Furthermore, Riley can take five steps per second, and the contact time between each step and the ground is only 0.01 seconds.

At first glance, these data may not seem like much.

However, after a series of calculations, it can be concluded that to achieve this speed, the pressure at the moment Riley touches the ground with one foot should be as high as 200 million Pascals, which is 20 times the compressive strength of the earth's crust!

Such terrifying force was enough to allow Riley to pierce through the concrete ground the moment he landed, triggering an extremely strong local earthquake!

Even on this basis, if Riley continues running for just ten seconds, the total energy released will reach two hundred million joules, equivalent to the power of fifty kilograms of TNT! He could easily raze a small community to the ground!

During high-speed running, the debris such as gravel and metal fragments that are inevitably kicked up will be carried by the powerful inertia, with a force comparable to machine gun fire! And a "bullet screen zone" with Riley himself as the center will be formed with a range of more than one kilometer!

Not to mention, during high-speed running, the friction with the air will generate terrifying high temperatures of 300 to 500 degrees Celsius!

Let alone Riley himself, even the symbiote attached to Riley that could significantly enhance his physique and resilience would be unable to withstand the scorching heat of this terrifying temperature due to its inherent weakness of being afraid of high temperatures and sound waves!

But because Peter was attacked, Riley, in a fit of rage, forgot all his concerns and only wanted to kill Tru. Riley, who had involuntarily pushed his speed to the limit, now felt a wave of fear and was surprised to find that...

The consequences of relying solely on physical strength to run at high speeds don't seem as terrifying as I imagined...?

As Riley had predicted, it did indeed create a large shockwave, blowing away all the nearby civilian soldiers.

But upon closer reflection, they were merely blown away without suffering any real harm.

Not to mention, as Riley calculated, transforming into a humanoid walking "little boy" and causing irreparable widespread damage!

So much so that when Riley returned to District 13, he racked his brains for a long time but still couldn't come up with a reasonable explanation.

Riley simply gave up on thinking and stopped torturing his poor brain cells. Instead, he chose to seek help from an external brain, finding Banner, a leading authority on physics. He confided his confusion and bewilderment to Banner.

After a brief period of silence and contemplation, Banner put forward a bold conjecture.

Perhaps, just like the Parker brothers, who, even while wearing their suits, can defy gravity and climb walls at will without causing any damage.

Spider-Man's built-in electrostatic attraction created a special biofield around Riley's body.

This allowed Riley to automatically absorb excess kinetic energy while running at high speed, just like Tru, who was protected by magic and carried the Rabbit Charm, thus avoiding all the terrible side effects mentioned above.

This explanation sounds just like Superman's biofield in the DC movies. It's simply a case of the writers lacking imagination and unable to come up with a reasonable explanation, so they forcibly created a superpower to cover up all the inconsistencies.

But upon closer examination, Banner's conjecture does indeed make some sense.

After all, aside from the significant reduction in destructive power during high-speed running...

As we all know, Spider-Man's power output is measured in tons, right?

Although the Parker brothers deliberately hold back when dealing with most enemies, especially ordinary criminals, they don't actually knock someone out with a single punch.

But not long ago, when dealing with Hulk and Super Abomination, or even when purely competing in strength against the Bull Warrior wearing the Bull Talisman, Riley didn't hold back at all.

Logically speaking, even if Riley's suit was made with nanotechnology, it should have suffered severe damage during the collision and clash of such terrifying forces.

Not to mention, when Riley fought the Bull Warrior, he didn't even wear his own battle suit; he was just wearing a regular casual outfit!

Even after that, when Riley was thrown far away by the powerful shockwave from Hulk's slapping skill, he only had a slightly dirty hem and did not end up completely naked!

This forced Riley to seriously consider whether Banner's conjecture might truly be the root cause of all the anomalies.

Of course, considering...

Iron Man's shock absorption system is so powerful that it makes physics obsolete.

Hulk's god-like pants that never get torn.

And without the protection or enhancement of the Speed ​​Force, he relies entirely on his own abilities to move at high speeds, and like Riley, he is exempt from all the aforementioned terrible side effects. Logically, his physical strength should be terrifyingly high, enough to be immune to most attacks, yet he can still be killed by bullets.

A variety of outrageous yet real expressions that exist in this universe.

Riley had long understood that taking Marvel science too seriously was definitely not a wise choice.

Just like a programmer dealing with mountains of shit code.

Don't worry about whether it's a bug or not.

As long as the program runs normally, that's enough.

So, whatever the answer may be...

With Banner's help, Riley went to the metal room reserved for power fighters and underwent some simple tests. He was then certain that the side effects he had feared would not occur to him.

Completely relieved, Riley, adhering to the belief that one shouldn't be too stubborn, stopped thinking about these headache-inducing issues.

Following that, Riley, who was able to refocus his attention on developing his own abilities, suddenly realized an exciting fact...

After acquiring the Symbiote Suit, Riley's weakness in defense has been significantly improved.

With the chicken talisman combined with the newly acquired rabbit talisman, high-speed flight can now be achieved in a truly meaningful way.

In addition, Spider-Man's own immense strength, amplified by the Ox Talisman, and a bio-force field similar to Superman's, further enhances his abilities.

Aside from lacking the Pig Talisman, being unable to project heat vision from the eyes, and having no powerful skills like Freezing Breath...

Riley welded all the runes he possessed onto the suit. Then he had the symbiote transform, focusing on enhancing the suit's defensive capabilities...

So, in a sense...

Now, Riley could probably wear his red underwear on the outside and cosplay a low-budget version of Superman in the Marvel Universe...?
