Peter was even more conflicted at this point, muttering to himself, "Gale, I've been wondering, have we been doing the right thing by using our superpowers to help people all this time?"
At first, he helped people out of enthusiasm and because of his Uncle Ben's teachings, but later, seeing more and more negative comments online, he began to doubt the correctness of what he was doing.
In fact, Ger had also questioned this issue. It's similar to the online discussions of "robbing the rich to help the poor" and "chivalry" that circulated in his previous life. When the social system is not so sound, many injustices occur, and many people desperately want someone to lend a hand, even if that action might violate the law or the existing social system. After all, laws are made based on many considerations, and sometimes they are not entirely compatible with morality.
However, if the social system is violated, it may lead to more imbalances and result in things going against expectations.
Another perplexing point here is that this society is different from the society in Geer's previous life, because this society has many superhumans whose abilities exceed those of ordinary people.
But later, Gale stopped doubting it because he tried to balance his chivalrous actions with legality and compliance. For example, he would notify the relevant departments in advance before taking action and try to avoid getting involved in so-called "chivalrous" activities. More importantly, Gale had no other choice at the time: in order to get close to the Space Stone, he had to gain the trust of Director Nick Fury and Natasha, and there was no better way to gain their trust than by acting chivalrously.
“It’s always good to keep thinking. Peter, think about it carefully, haven’t many people been saved because of you?” Gel looked at the bewildered Peter and said earnestly, “Actually, you should know that Harry and I are very grateful to you because you led us through a long period of darkness. I believe those you saved feel the same way.”
Peter played a significant role in the fact that the three of them became such good friends. When Gert fled the war in Sokovia with Wanda and Pietro and settled in America, Gert also suffered severe psychological trauma.
After all, no one can remain calm after witnessing war, gunfire, and widespread casualties firsthand. After meeting Peter, Uncle Ben, and Aunt May, the three of them gradually healed his psychological trauma, with Peter, with whom he spent the most time, having the greatest influence on him.
However, such words were too sentimental, and Geer never said them aloud.
Therefore, Gertrude would certainly not persuade Peter to abandon his kindness, but rather to make Peter understand the meaning of "measure".
Peter is undoubtedly intelligent; he just needs someone to talk to right now.
Ger smiled and said, "We've saved a lot of people over the past year, so it's been worth it. As for whether it's right or wrong, no one can judge. I know where your confusion lies. After all, legal, regulatory, and moral factors are all involved, making it difficult to assess. All I can say is that in the future, we need to have more power to sit in the appropriate positions and better help better people."
Peter nodded in realization and continued, "So what do you think I should do?"
Gel patted Peter on the shoulder: "Peter, what you should do now is focus on increasing your strength and studying hard so that you can exert more power when you are in that position. If you want to continue helping others, S.H.I.E.L.D. will continue to help you deal with some of the negative impacts, and you should try to only use your abilities to save people. For more difficult cases, if I need you, I will seek your help. Just worry less and make good use of Venom training, okay?"
After Gail joined S.H.I.E.L.D., he also secured a semi-official status for Peter and his friends, so the police no longer arrested them for their acts of heroism or for disturbing social order.
After Ger's explanation, Peter was much happier: "I understand."
Seeing that Peter had come to his senses, Ger didn't try to persuade him further. So the two of them drank their beverages, looked at the scenery for a while, chatted casually, and then went home separately.
For the next two weeks, Gol received troubling news every day: Pierce had completely disappeared, and there was no trace of him; there was no news about the two companions Venom had mentioned who had fallen with the meteorite.
Gel didn't know how Director Nick had handled the Abomination and Missile incidents; all he could see was that Nick always had a furrowed brow. As for Peter, he was incredibly well-behaved in front of Gwen every day, and their relationship actually improved.
Another six months passed in this tranquility.
Before we knew it, it was already April 2010.
For the past six months, Ge Er has been extremely busy every day.
At times, Gol would spend time with Wanda in the library at Kamar-Taj, learning magic together from Daniel. After more than half a year of study, Gol and Wanda had mastered many ranged and melee spells.
The Ancient One did not agree to Wanda and Pietro using the Time Stone, but she also did not explain why. Gel speculated that the Ancient One was worried about Wanda and Pietro's immaturity, or perhaps she had even foreseen the consequences of Wanda and Pietro using the Time Stone to enhance their abilities through her time magic. Pietro and Wanda were naturally unhappy for several days upon learning this, because simply absorbing the Space Stone's energy was no longer sufficient to significantly increase their abilities.
As for Casillas, Ger occasionally observed him and found that Casillas had changed a lot under the influence of the two elders. As for Mordo, although he also had a somewhat extreme personality, he had never done anything outrageous, and Ger couldn't force him to undergo reformation.
