Chapter 4

She gathered her courage, walked a bit closer and said, "Thank you for helping me, are you also a superhero?"

Actually, she had another question in her heart: Why are you dressed like you're in the same series as me?

Ye Li activated the suit's voice-changing device and used a low, deep voice to pose, "You can call me Spider-Man."

That's right, he shamelessly registered this title.

"Spi..."

Gwen was speechless; could he have any more shame? Pirating her suit was one thing, but even stealing the title?

If it weren't for the fact that this weird guy had just saved her, she would have wanted to complain.

"You bastard!"

At this time, Vulture didn't forget to brush his presence under Ye Li's feet.

Ye Li didn't speak, acting like an expert, just applying force with his foot, letting Vulture know what it meant to assess the situation.

"Ah——!"

"I was wrong! Spare me!"

[Redacted]

Vulture felt the broken ribs in his chest pierce a bit deeper and quickly retracted his unruly appearance, begging for mercy in a mournful voice.

"I'm taking him away."

Ye Li greeted Ghost-Spider, hooked his foot to lift Vulture up, and then reached out to grab him.

"Wait! Where are you taking him?"

Ghost-Spider quickly said, "You should hand him over to the police station!"

"I'm not a vigilante."

After leaving a sentence.

Ye Li flew into the sky with Vulture, his trench coat flapping loudly, disappearing into the night.

"Hey!"

Gwen under the mask was helpless; she couldn't catch up in time.

On an empty rooftop.

Thud.

Ye Li threw the injured Vulture onto the ground and asked with his arms crossed, "Do you know where Kingpin is?"

"Kingpin?"

Toomes' mind raced; so this guy was actually looking for Kingpin?

He couldn't help but curse in his heart, damn Kingpin, he had harmed him so miserably!

Counting the previous scores, he swore he must kill him!

"Answer my question."

The cold voice came again.

"What are you doing looking for Kingpin?"

Vulture's eyes flickered; if Ye Li was looking for Kingpin with malicious intent, he would say everything he knew without a second word.

"Teach him a lesson, let him know not to litter on the street."

Ye Li said lightly.

Weirdo... even Vulture wanted to complain; Kingpin was the underground king, and you're going to teach him a lesson just because of littering? Is the World Environmental Protection Organization run by your family?

Vulture didn't know that the trash Ye Li was talking about was actually him.

He thought for a moment and said, "Will you let me go if I tell you?"

"My patience is limited."

Ye Li twisted his neck, ready to act.

"Alright, I'll say it... you guy is really brutal."

Vulture finally understood; this pitch-black guy and Spider-Woman were not the same kind of people at all, he was ruthless.

"Kingpin and I also have a grudge, I can go with you to find him."

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, "Maybe I have to wait until my injuries are better."

"So you don't know Kingpin's location either?"

Cold light seemed to shine from under Ye Li's suit mask, "If that's the case, you're useless."

"No, I know!"

Vulture quickly said, "If you want to go now, I can provide you with a few locations... he might be active in these places, but be quick, I caught him once today, his range of activity might change."

Ye Li silently noted these locations, glanced at Vulture, and prepared to turn and leave.

Just then, a message suddenly appeared in his mind.

You defeated Gwen Stacy's enemy of destiny; as her [Connection], you can choose one of the following rewards:

[1. Money reward: One million US dollars]

[2. Random reward: Captain America collector's figure]

[3. Minion reward: Convert Adrian Toomes, gain an absolutely loyal subordinate].

Rewards for defeating supervillains?

Did I get it wrong? I'm just a connection who built a relationship with a superhero.

As a connection, shouldn't the task be to be an ordinary person with no power to truss a chicken, doing odd jobs under the glory of superheroes, or giving heroes a warm harbor? What's with this sense of déjà vu of making me a superhero?

Ye Li, who had just beaten Vulture to a pulp, thought this without any self-awareness.

Think about it, if Iron Man was wearing his precious suit and preparing to go all out, Pepper would say to him: "Hey, Tony, I've already solved the enemies, don't wander around in the Iron Man suit, hurry back to work for me!"

My god, then the "Iron Man" movie would have to be renamed "Iron Woman."

This [Supernatural Connection System] is not very serious; it's a rhythm of making me overstep my authority.

Although he complained, Ye Li still seriously scanned the rewards.

Hmm... perhaps it's like the difference between doing NPC tasks in online games and grinding monsters in the wild yourself; compared to the rewards for triggering Gwen and the others' tasks, his behavior of actively grinding monsters seems not very good.

One million dollars? A lot for an ordinary person, but he doesn't care much about money.

Captain America collector's figure?

Coulson of the Snake Shield Bureau should like it very much.

Vulture's absolute loyalty?

What do I need the loyalty of a sleazy middle-aged man for?

Alright, I can have one more subordinate to do odd jobs.

With his thoughts turning, Ye Li made a choice.

[Choice 3]

At least Toomes, as a former electronic engineer, is much more useful than the first two choices.

Vulture, who had originally breathed a sigh of relief, saw Ye Li suddenly pause and turn back, and his heart rose again.

"You..."

Before Vulture could say anything, his consciousness began to blur.

Then, together with the suit on his body, he turned into a stream of data and dissipated.

"This is?"

Ye Li followed the system information and pressed the operation panel on the wrist of the suit.

He saw the data stream re-converge, Vulture reappeared, and the armor was in perfect condition.

This is different from what I thought...

So the so-called absolute loyalty is converted into a summon?!

A few days later.

Ye Li had a laptop in front of him, browsing some news online.

That night, Kingpin really changed his area of activity; he searched all the places Vulture mentioned and found nothing.
