When the entire Multiverse was moved out of its native Space, it meant that it would no longer be under the jurisdiction of the OAA alone, or rather, it would no longer be solely under the control of the OAA; other wills would also come to govern it.

Typically, a Space would only be moved out of its native Space once a suitable successor had been found. However, the Multiverse that Schiller found himself in was quite unique. It had not reached any copyright agreements, nor were there any other supreme beings to take over.

In order to avoid copyright disputes, the OAA relinquished control of this Space, which theoretically made Eternity the highest authority over this "no man's land" Space.

Schiller had originally intended to give the OAA trouble because he knew that to seek additional compensation, he needed to approach the chief planner. However, due to the swift severance by the OAA, he was no longer the planner for this project.

Normally, when a game project is handed over to another company, a new planner would take over. But in Schiller's case, his Multiverse was not transferred; it was expelled, leaving no one to parachute in as the new planner. Thus, the original highest-ranking individual had to be promoted to the position of planner.

Eternity honorably assumed this responsibility, even though he was still unaware of it. As the foundation of Space, he had already, in name, taken on the role of the chief planner and was about to acquire the authority to become the supreme being of this Space.

Deadpool's possession of the Plot Continuity Gem allowed him to turn his will into reality. Paired with Deadpool's belt that enabled teleportation, he was directly transported to the supreme being of this Space.

Originally, it should have been the OAA, but now it was Eternity.

Due to the abruptness of the crossing, Deadpool initially thought he was dreaming while drunk and was prepared to display his might within the dream. He intended to seek vengeance for his good friend, Little Spider, and, disregarding everything, indulged in a riotous display. The result was that Eternity nearly went mad.

Excrement, being waste matter, instinctively repulsed any intelligent life with a personality. Eternity was no exception.

In simple terms, no one could tolerate their home being inundated with feces, and Eternity was extraordinarily angry.

Typically, when an all-knowing and all-powerful being wanted to inquire about something, there were two methods. The first was to follow the timeline and look forward, while the second was to investigate causality, moving from effect to cause to discover what had led to the current consequences.

Eternity initially used the first method, but his inquiry did not encompass the Plot Continuity Gem. As a result, his time tracing only went back to when Deadpool was performing some sort of cycle operation with his crops in his home.

Watching a black and red figure defecate all over his house, Eternity's blood pressure shot up, and he began to investigate causality. However, causality did not include the Plot Continuity Gem; whenever it involved this extraordinary gem, the screen turned into a mosaic.

After searching for a while, Eternity, who had only discovered Deadpool's appearance, became thoroughly exasperated.

In another part of Space, within a similarly tranquil space, Space Captain Spider-Man was surveying the battlefield. He said to Amazing Spider-Man behind him, "Conservatively speaking, Solus endured at least over ten thousand cuts; he didn't depart peacefully." Space Captain looked around once more and said, "These scattered energy fragments must be what they didn't have time to pick up after hacking him."

Amazing Spider-Man hesitated for a moment and asked, "So, you're saying he's beyond dead?"

"If I'm not mistaken," Space Captain Spider-Man replied, "not only did they chop him up, but they also took all the sizable corpse parts that they could. As for what came next, it's not easy to describe... but he's definitely beyond dead." Space Captain Spider-Man nodded.

"In that case, we can relax now. Let's head back; there are some wounded in need..." Amazing Spider-Man began, but Space Spider-Man suddenly appeared, looking anxious.

"Oh, sorry, Eternity sent me a message, asking me to hurry over," Space Spider-Man said.

Amazing Spider-Man waved his hand and said, "You go ahead. If you're busy with work, there's no need to come back. We'll take care of the wounded. Once we've handled things, we'll return to our respective Spaces."

Space Captain Spider-Man nodded, and his figure disappeared in an instant. Amazing Spider-Man glanced around and realized there was nothing more to investigate. He gestured to the other Spider-Men and said, "Let's go; we should head back..."

Just as they were about to leave, Space Captain Spider-Man suddenly reappeared, his face showing signs of urgency. He exclaimed, "Quick!! Notify all the Spider-Men!!! Find someone!!!"

"Find someone? Find who?" Amazing Spider-Man asked, puzzled.

"Find Deadpool! Deadpool in some Space! Eternity said it's a weird guy wearing a tight-fitting red and black combat suit... he... he..." Space Captain Spider-Man retched, clearly affected by the odor.

Among the team of Spider-Men behind Amazing Spider-Man, many furrowed their brows. Amazing Spider-Man took the lead in asking, "Find Deadpool? Why? How does Deadpool know Eternity?"

"He... he..." Space Captain Spider-Man showed a complex expression, a mixture of shock, disgust, admiration, and extreme emotions. "He went to Eternity's temple and... he... he... he... splattered it with excrement!"

All the Spider-Men collectively gasped in shock.

Meanwhile, in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s office, Peter sighed in frustration. "Director Nick, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I can't deceive people from other Spaces to come here. It's unethical..."

"How can you call it deception?" Nick earnestly tried to persuade Peter. "You've seen it; those villains live in a universe with other Spider-Men. They work hard every day not only to earn a living but also to counter society. If we fail, I'll be beaten by superheroes and thrown into prison."

"But is having special abilities their fault? No, it's a societal responsibility. We must take on that societal responsibility. If their society is unwilling to bear this responsibility, then we will."

"Superpowered criminals are worthless in their world, but in ours, they can become assets. Peter, as a researcher, don't you want two or three Electros at your disposal to troubleshoot circuit issues? Didn't you complain about power outages in the laboratory before?"

"But... this really won't work. I can't just approach them and say, 'Hey, buddy, want to move to another Space with me?' They'd think I'm crazy!" Peter wore a bitter expression.

When he wasn't Spider-Man, he already had a touch of social anxiety. Plus, spending too much time in the laboratory had further strengthened his scholarly personality. His high moral standards made it impossible for him to do such a thing.

Nick was well aware of this, but based on the information he had gathered, it seemed that the only one who could freely traverse various individual Spaces at the moment was Spider-Man.

The people in Asgard were unresponsive, and it consumed a tremendous amount of energy for Stark to go up there once. Schiller seemed to be preoccupied with something every day. Nick could only hope that he could persuade the kind-hearted Spider-Man to help him recruit labor from the Multiverse.

Peter sighed and said with a dejected tone, "I'm sorry, Director. I have a class later, so I must go."

As he walked out the door, Peter sighed again. At that moment, Coulson, who was about to report on his work, bumped into Peter at the entrance. He glanced at Peter and asked, "Director Nick is trying to persuade you again?"

"Correct, this is the sixth time this week. Each time, he talks for more than three hours, and I'm really getting driven crazy by it," Peter said with a weary expression.

Originally, Nick "Fury" wouldn't have been able to persuade him easily. After all, Peter had professional knowledge and strong logical thinking. Once he put on the Spider-Man suit, he could talk for hours without stopping.

However, when it came to exploiting employees, Nick's enthusiasm was simply overwhelming. The thought of having an unlimited labor force in the Multiverse made him forget about his back pain, leg pain, shortness of breath, and even improved his cultural level. Peter found it impossible to argue with him.

As a result, Peter had been feeling down these past few days. It could be said that if not for Spider-Man's incredibly high moral standards, he would have compromised long ago.

"I think using a deceptive approach to make others work for us is unethical. I really can't do it," Peter sighed.

Coulson patted him on the shoulder and said, "I know, but you also need to understand that Director Nick is really short-staffed right now..."

Peter nodded but didn't say anything more. Instead, he turned and left. However, just as he had walked out of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s base door, his Spider-Sense suddenly emitted a "ting-ting-ting" sound.

This was the sound of Spider web trying to contact him. Spider-Man paused for a moment, then answered the communication. As expected, it was a message sent by Spider web. After listening for a while, Peter exclaimed in surprise, "Deadpool went to the Eternity temple to splatter it with feces? My goodness, is he crazy?!"

"No, of course not. It can't be our Deadpool from this Space. Wade is a good person; he even helps his comrades," Peter clarified.

"No, I don't need to ask him; I understand his character. He would never do something so crazy. Just go to other Spaces and investigate. I won't lie," Peter added.

After ending the call, Peter shook his head and said, "I wonder which Space's Deadpool is so insane, actually going to the Eternity temple..."

Peter made a disgusted expression but then shook his head, thought for a moment, and took out his mobile phone.

"Hello? Is this Pikachu? Is Deadpool with you? No, nothing special, didn't we agree to play a game together last time?... Yeah, I just finished some work, same place as before."

At the arcade, Deadpool and Pikachu were indeed waiting. Peter walked in with three servings of pancakes and three cups of cola. He gave each of them a portion. As he handed the plate to Deadpool, he wrinkled his nose and asked, "Why does the smell on you keep getting stronger?"

"Can't help it, my body is in a constant state of decay. If it weren't for genetic modifications, I might have died a long time ago," Deadpool said, taking a sip of cola and shrugging nonchalantly.

Peter showed a sympathetic expression and immediately changed the subject. After playing games enthusiastically for the entire afternoon, they continued until it got dark. Peter glanced at his watch and said, "I have to visit the laboratory for a while. Let's call it a day."

"What?!" Deadpool wailed, "We've only played for a little while in two weeks! I wanted to take you to a bar. Haven't you been to a bar before?"

Peter scratched his head and said, "I haven't, because I couldn't drink alcohol when I was underage. I'm a bit curious, but I have an important experiment tomorrow, and I'm afraid I won't sleep well tonight. Let's do it tomorrow."

Deadpool looked a bit disinterested and waved his hand, saying dejectedly, "You don't know; drinking makes you sleep better. Just like me, I had a really interesting dream today..."

Suddenly, Deadpool became excited. He jumped up and said to Peter, "That's right, I haven't told you about that super awesome dream yet!"

"You see, I took on a job a few days ago. There was a mysterious person who approached me, asking me to cause trouble for a planner from a certain company. He gave me a series of secret codes, probably their industry jargon. I still haven't found that place, but before, I had a few drinks and had a really interesting dream. I dreamed that I actually arrived at the place mentioned in the secret codes, a temple in the middle of a Space."

"It was incredibly beautiful, just like... well, you know. So cool!" Deadpool exclaimed.

"Then I thought, if I can't complete the job in reality, I can have some fun in the dream. So, I just took off my pants! Hahaha... Papa Deadpool went all out and gave them a dose of my... you know...!" Deadpool burst into laughter as he recounted the story.

As he reached the climax of his story, Deadpool laughed heartily. But in the corner of his eye, he noticed that Peter's expression had completely frozen.
