Chapter 103

...Alright, off-topic.

I came because I have something very important to ask you, about the Chitauri legion, I think you should know something...

Ms. Silk, are you there?

Ms. Moon?

Cindy?"

Stark muttered to himself for a while, finding no response, and shouted into the house.

"Ms. Silk! Are you there?!"

Click~

"Stop shouting... young man..."

The door next door opened.

The elderly neighbor lady poked her head out and said.

"Cindy said she was going to Chinatown for a stroll... she's not home right now..."

"Oh, alright, Chinatown, is it."

Tony stopped knocking and thanked the old lady. "Thank you, ma'am, I'll bring you an apple pie next time."

"Hehe, call me Ms."

The old lady put on her reading glasses, saw Stark clearly, and playfully blew him a flying kiss. "So it's Iron Man... can I get an autograph?"

"Oh~ Ms., I know I'm very charming."

Tony was quite friendly.

His shoulder armor lifted.

The suit's finger pointed ostentatiously, and a laser carved Iron Man's signature onto her door.

"But I'm busy saving the world right now, keep this as a souvenir."

....... ....... 0

Then.

Tony had to hurry to Chinatown.

At this moment.

"Hey!"

Transfer qq group 37172919

An old man with white hair and a white beard came out of the old lady's house.

"Who allowed you to carve on the door?"

He wore fashionable glasses, his face full of wrinkles, peered at the smoking door, and lectured Stark.

"Are you still a little rascal?

A grown man, still wanting to celebrate Children's Day?"

"what?"

Tony, who was just taking off, was stunned by the old man's three-part question. "Who are you?"

"You don't need to know who I am."

The fashionable old man put his hands behind his back, looked into the distance, and spat out a mysterious line to show off.

"You have a good friend."

Tony: "What?"

"Nothing."

The fashionable old man waved his hand. "Hurry up and go, kid, before I settle accounts with you."

"Bizarre..."

Tony had urgent matters and couldn't be bothered to tangle with this neurotic old man, so he turned and flew into the sky.

After he left.

The fashionable old man smiled, as if gratified to see a child find happiness.

"Compared to other Iron Men.

You are much luckier, kid.

You saved...

This is what you deserve..."

Whoosh~——~

As a light breeze blew by.

The elderly couple's figures dissipated.

The furnishings inside the house also became exceptionally old.

Here.

No one had lived for a long time...

Whoosh—

Whoosh—

Webs wrapped around two Chitauri.

Cindy swung her arm hard, smashing them into a trash can on the side of the street—Boom!

Successfully saving a group of elementary school students carrying backpacks.

"Thank you, sister."

"It's nothing, you guys run away."

After Cindy sent the elementary students away.

Chen Ying approached her with her small pistol, her eyes cautiously scanning the cleared street.

"There don't seem to be many of these guys..."

"Um."

Cindy looked toward the blue beam of light, where the black dots weren't as dense anymore. "Someone must be intercepting them."

Chen Ying guessed, "I guess it's superheroes like you."

"Maybe."

"770" Cindy activated the suit's communication function, wanting to contact Skye. "I can ask the club..."

Bang~

Before she could finish.

The girl suddenly fell to her knees, covering her head with both hands and screaming, "Ah——!"

Her appearance was exactly the same as Gwen's at the manor, perhaps even more intense.

"Cindy!?"

Chen Ying quickly grabbed her with one hand.

And hid in the corner of a street building.

Her other hand held the pistol, the muzzle constantly changing direction, searching for potential enemies.

"Did you get hit by those monsters' tricks?"

"She was hit by my trick."

A tall black shadow loomed.

Morlun appeared before the two girls.

He wore a cold sneer, dressed in European aristocratic style, completely out of place with the surrounding Chinatown scenery.

"I..."

Cindy leaned in Chen Ying's arms, recovering slightly, her tone weak. "...I can't feel it anymore..."

She felt her head didn't hurt anymore, but her spider-sense was very weak, as if she had returned to being an ordinary person...

No...

It should be said...

It was as if her spider-sense had disappeared...

"The 'Bride' at the center of the Web of Destiny... I advise you not to struggle, because that will only be a futile resistance."

Morlun rubbed his two sharp fingernails. "Without spider-sense, you won't last two rounds."

"Who are you?"

Chen Ying raised her gun, aiming at this tall monster.

"Did you mistake the person! Cindy is Silk, not some bride!"

"It's all the same."

Morlun glanced at the gun in her hand. "Don't aim such toys at me."

As soon as he finished speaking.

Only a residual image remained in place!

Fwoosh——!

[Warning! Attack from the left!]

Although Cindy's spider-sense had failed, the suit's mini-program 'Web' gave her a warning.

And so.

Just as Morlun was about to deal with Chen Ying first, Cindy hugged her and swung away—!

Boom!!

Morlun's punch missed, hitting the ground.

However, he wasn't annoyed; instead, he turned to look at Cindy, who was swinging away between buildings, and sneered.

"Looks like you have some little tricks, but it will only let you last a few more seconds."

A golden portal opened out of thin air.

Brix leaped out, throwing a dagger that precisely cut Cindy's web.

He was Morlun's brother, another member of the Inheritor family.

"Careful!"

Cindy had no spider-sense and couldn't react to the web breaking, so she could only protect Chen Ying while in freefall.

Bang!

She hit the ground; fortunately, thanks to the suit's protection and her own physique, she was unharmed.

But Morlun and his brother Brix had already surrounded the two from front and back.

The Inheritor family wanted to capture the 'Bride', who held a special status among Spider-Men, so naturally, they wouldn't send only one person to this universe.

"What do we do?"

Chen Ying and Cindy stood back-to-back, the hand holding the gun trembling with fear. "These two monsters seem even more powerful than the alien monsters..."

Cindy: "They are..."

Peng——!!

Morlun and his brother wouldn't give them time to chat; accompanied by the sound of breaking wind, they attacked again.

However.

Just at this moment...

Hum-en——Boom!!

An energy cannon intercepted and stopped Morlun.

Clang!

Iron Man landed from the sky, blocking in front of Cindy. "What's going on? Ms. Silk."

"Wait a moment!"

Cindy didn't respond to Stark for the moment, using all her strength to kick Brix away, then immediately patted Chen Ying on the shoulder and said to her.

"Take this chance, you run! This has nothing to do with you, and it's not something you can participate in!"

"Um!"

Chen Ying nodded.

She knew time was urgent, so she didn't say anything more, turned, and ran into an alley...

Only then did Cindy talk to Tony.

"Is that Mr. Stark? Thank you for your help, why did you come here?"

Tony: "I heard from Li that..."

Da! Da! Da-da-da!!

Just as he was speaking.

A continuous string of gunfire rang out—

Da-da-da-da-da!!

Ye Li strolled toward them.

He held a golden AK in his left hand, constantly sweeping at Morlun, while his right hand leisurely held a cup of milk tea, sipping it...

Morlun found it ridiculous, letting this funny guy shoot. "You think such toys can hurt me?"

The bullets poured onto him, only sinking shallowly into his flesh before being squeezed out.

2.6 And the wounds healed quickly too.

As mutated vampires, the Inheritor family naturally had perverted healing abilities.

"Morlun, is it."

Ye Li felt it was enough, so he stopped shooting, shouldered the AK, and walked directly in front of Morlun. "I heard you guys are very arrogant."

Morlun: "..." (Why do I feel like you're even more arrogant?)

Watching Ye Li walk right up to him so recklessly.

Morlun raised his hand, ready to finish this fool—

"I've never seen such a stupid guy, consider my eyes opened."

Ye Li deliberately scratched his back with the muzzle, acting casual. "Oh, forgot to tell you, friendly tip, my bullets are laced with nuclear radiation~"

Morlun: ?????.
